- Habitat of the Walrus:The walrus lives in the polar regions of the world. These places include Greenland, Canada, and some parts of Northern Russia.
- Life Cycle:The walrus has a very simple life cycle. They begin life as a baby, or a pup. They will grow into a young walrus, still learning to care for itself. Finally, they will mature into an adult walrus, able to fend for itself and its new young!
- Predators and Dangers:The walrus is a large and formidable animal. It is gentle and slow, but when threatened it will attack with its sharp tusks. The walrus does not have many predators, but orcas and humans will occasionally hunt them for food/resources. One way the walrus protects itself is with its super thick layer of blubber.
- Special Features:There are many unique features of the walrus that help it to survive in its extreme habitat. One feature is both the male and the female walrus have tusks.
