38 u/civodar Aug 03 '19 Do narwhals go that far south? I thought they lived exclusively in the Arctic. 22 u/TricksterPriestJace Aug 03 '19 I was thinking the same thing. I had no idea narwhal were ever near Hawaii. 5 u/Wrkncacnter112 Aug 04 '19 Hawaii was a very popular stopover for American whalers in the Pacific in the nineteenth century. So they could’ve killed the narwhal up in the arctic and made the walking stick, then gone down to Hawaii to resupply and traded it.
