Description
The walrus, a majestic marine mammal of the Arctic, commands attention with its imposing tusks and lumbering presence. These social creatures congregate on ice floes and coastal haul-outs, where they engage in vocal communication and intricate social hierarchies. With their specialized tusks, they forage for clams and other benthic prey, displaying remarkable adaptability to their icy habitats. Despite facing threats from climate change and human activity, walruses remain iconic symbols of the Arctic wilderness, embodying resilience and strength in the face of adversity.
