That's not an underwater unicorn. Narwhal's are underwater unicorns.

Even the person who sent me the meme wished it was a narwhal. yea

I hate to be that guy but I love fun facts. Narwhal horns aren't actually in the middle of their head, they grow from one side of their skull so I'm not sure they can be classified as a unicorn sadly.

Then they are the closest thing we have to an underwater unicorn. Don't let the perfect get in the way of the good.

A good and fair point.

They're also not horns, they're teeth.

Facts, yes. But surely more horn like than whatever the swordfish has.
