Walruses have large, flabby bodies covered in brown or pink skin. Short fur covers most of their bodies except for their fins. Their faces feature two small eyes, a mustache and two long tusks.
They weigh from 600 to 1 500 kg and can be as long as 3.2 meters. Males are about twice as big as females, have longer and thicker tusks, and usually have thicker skin; their blubber keeps them warm in frigid waters. These animals can also slow their heart rates, which allows them to live in freezing temperatures.
Walrus tusks can grow up to 1 m. The tusks are canine teeth and stick out from either side of the animal's mouth. Walruses use their tusks to break through ice, and to assist in climbing out of the water and onto the ice. The animals also use their tusks to defend themselves from larger predators.
Most walruses live in frigid waters near the Arctic Circle. They prefer areas with shallow water so they can easily access food. Their favorite food is shellfish. They dive underwater and use their whiskers to detect the shellfish in the dark waters of the ocean. They also eat sea cucumbers, coral, a variety of mollusks, shrimp, crabs, tube worms, tunicates, seals, and sea birds.
They climb up on ice or beaches to sleep or to rest. They don't move quickly on land but are swift in the water. Walruses can swim on average around 7 km/h and as fast as 35 km/h.
A group of walruses is called a herd. They gather by the hundreds to sunbathe on the ice.
