With their long tusks, narwhals are unique whales that live in the Arctic Ocean. But as climate change causes global temperatures to rise, less and less sea ice is covering the Arctic Ocean each year. Narwhals are left vulnerable without the ice, which historically provided them with safe areas to roam out of reach of their natural predators, killer whales. And humans are taking advantage of the clearer water, searching and drilling for oil and hauling cargo.

Dive into the ocean where killer whales and penguins swim. Killer whales, called orcas, and king penguins both live in freezing Antarctica. Giant orcas hunt in groups and kill prey with their many teeth. King penguins are much smaller than orcas, but their speed and agility help them get away. Explore their traits and skills to find out which animal would win in a fight!

Ambos mamíferos marinos nadan con aletas y pueden encontrarse en océanos alrededor del mundo. Uno tiene orejas visibles, mientras que las orejas del otro no son externas. Uno atraviesa el agua utilizando sus aletas traseras, mientras que el otro usa sus aletas frontales para nadar.
