This enables them to create a vacuum-like seal when feeding on the ocean floor in the wild. By using their muscular tongues, they can suck up mollusks, clams, and other small invertebrates from the sandy seabed. 視 | Point Defiance Zoo & Aquarium | Facebook

During breeding season, males display both visually and vocally to female walruses. Balzak and Lakina both have caps on their tusks to help protect them as they grow. : KPassionate | Point Defiance Zoo & Aquarium | Facebook
