Narwhale horn (pre-ban type, anyway) can sell anywhere from $4000-8000+ USD depending on quality,shape,and size of the horn. This guy must think its his lucky day. I bet it gets even more on the "black" market in the USA. (post ban) Shame that something so pretty and rare can fetch such a high price. This is the moral dilemma poachers (and native people with hunting rights) face daily. Could you resist hunting rare animals that can bring you/your family a better life through TONS of money? Tough choices, & sad statement on mankind. Everything has a price tag. Save a species from extinction, or watch your kids grow up healthy. Tough choice. Save the planet, don't have kids...I say. :P Nice find for that guy. Narwhale horn (pre-ban type, anyway) can sell anywhere from $4000-8000+ USD depending on quality,shape,and size of the horn.

But some one should shove one of them horns up that mukluk chewing guys arse. Worse than a redneck with a 300 pound deer. Rare thing to kill, only approve of it because I'm a staunch "eat what you kill" old school woodsman. But why such a rare and magnifacient animal? I realize that killing whales feeds these people.
