How do narwhals eat?

Narwhals consume fish, squid, shrimp, Greenland halibut, cod, rockfish,  flounder, and crab.They primarily feed near the sea floor deep under the ice of the Arctic. Narwhals only have two vestigial teeth; the male narwhal tusk is thought to play little to no role in feeding because males and tuskless females consume the same diet.
