Narwhals are still around in Northern waters and you can still buy narwhal horns which are ivory and about 4 feet long.
Best wishes, MIke.

Yes and they're still here too!
You may be confusing the issue with the existence of unicorns. The narwhales "tusk" was often found and thought to be from a unicorn (which never existed).

They still exist today. The name Narwhale means “corpse whale” because it often swims belly up, laying motionless for several minutes. Seen from west Greenland to Mid-eastern Canada.

Yes. See link. Are you confusing the Narwhal's part in the legend of the Unicorn ?

Narwhals exist now. Some people think that their one long tusk is the real basis for the belief in mythical unicorns.
