Description
Do Pacific walruses migrate? Yes, they actually do. But, only females and calves migrate in the spring. They migrate with moving ice floes and need ice for rest between dives for food. Like this one, who is riding on a floating iceberg. To get to an iceberg, the walrus uses its tusks as ice picks to haul itself out of the water onto the ice. From late winter to early spring, walruses only come ashore during breeding season.
