The Pacific walrus (Odobenus rosmarus divergens) is a large marine mammal that is found in the Bering Sea and the Chukchi Sea. They are known for their distinctive tusks and their ability to haul themselves onto land or ice floes. Walruses in the Bering Sea typically feed on clams, snails, and other bottom-dwelling invertebrates. They use their sensitive whiskers to detect prey on the ocean floor and then use their strong tusks to dig and pry open shells. Walruses are social animals and can be found in groups of hundreds or even thousands. They communicate with each other using a variety of vocalizations, including grunts, whistles, and bellows. Walruses are an important cultural and subsistence resource for many indigenous communities in the Bering Sea region. However, they are also facing threats from climate change, which is causing the loss of sea ice and changing the availability of their food sources. Additionally, hunting and habitat destruction are also contributing to declining walrus populations.
