Monodon monoceros is a rare species more commonly known as the narwhal. Narwhals are known to have a single, long horn in the front of their head. Until recently, they have only known to live in the western ocean. They were also 16 narwhals discovered in the northern desert near xMadMonkeyx's town.
Discovery
Narwhals were first discovered on PirateCraft by Astrobolt in December 2016. They were discovered in the western ocean, approximately 5000 blocks from cove.
Feeding Habits
As narwhals are incredibly rare, little is known about their feeding habits. The most that can be concluded is that they eat plankton in large quantities that resemble coal.
Endangerment
Narwhals are considered as a highly endangered species on PirateCraft. Until recently, studies have shown that there may be as few as one narwhal left on the entire server. Narwhals were discovered in the northern desert as well, prompting the question of their abilities to survive out of water.
Battles
Narwhals have proven to be fearsome warriors in ship battles. After Astrobolt tamed the first discovered narwhal, he rode it into a ship battle, making Astrobolt the first player to bring a narwhal to a ship battle. Narwhals are able to carry up to 3 iron cannons, 6 mortars, cargo, and passengers, making them perfect for riding into combat.
