Summary: | Ground section of a narwhal mandibular condyle. This is an example of material which would probably be impossible to reproduce today due to CITES rules. [CITES: Convention on International Trade in Endangered Species of Wild Fauna and Flora is an international agreement between governments which aims is to ensure that international trade in specimens of wild animals and plants does not threaten the survival of the species]. This slide was produced from tissue donated by the late Ed Mitchell of the Canadian Dept of Fisheries and Oceans (St Anne de Bellevue, PQ, Canada) from material from indigenous Canadian Inuit narwhal hunting. |
