Walrus - Four Brothers Cutout

Three brother walruses, Wilson, Winston, Winthrop, rest on an ice floe, with the fourth brother, Wilbur, in the water. Text reading "Alaska" also appears. The walrus (Odobenus rosmarus) is circumpolar in its range but they are found in geographically separate areas. The only living species in the Odobenidae family and Odobenus genus, the walrus is divided into three subspecies; the Atlantic (O. rosmarus rosmarus) which inhabits the coastal regions of northeastern Canada and Greenland, the Pacific Walrus (O. rosmarus divergens) found in the Bering and Chukchi Seas, and O. rosmarus Laptevi, which lives in the Laptev Sea. The walrus is immediately recognized by its prominent tusks, whiskers and great bulk. Adult Pacific males can weigh up to 3,700 lb (1,700 kilograms). They are long-lived, social animal and considered a keystone species. Walruses are cinnamon brown in color.
