Narwhals are deep-diving Arctic whales that require vast ocean spaces, constantly cold temperatures, and specialized diets in their natural habitat. These complex requirements are difficult, if not impossible, to replicate in captivity, leading to stress, health issues, and ultimately a high mortality rate for narwhals in captivity. Additionally, the implications of capturing and confining these animals can also raise ethical concerns.
