Walruses
The walrus is a very large animal that has tusks (that grow to 1.5 meters) used for hunting and transportation. A walrus can travel from 7-35kph in water and on land the speed of an average person running. They can weigh from 0.8 to 1.7 tons and grow up to 3.5 meters long!
Walruses are the kings of the sea (except for sharks and narwhals) and will eat anything in their paths like shrimp, crabs, sea cucumbers, sea birds and clams. However, walruses have a strange way of extracting clams from their shells. Instead of breaking the shell by snapping it backward, it sticks its toungue in sucks really hard by retracting its toungue and the clam slips right out!
As some marine animals do, walruses migrate. There are two types of walrus, the pacific walruses, and Atlantic walruses. Pacific walruses migrate from northern Russia, east through the Bering straight (between Canada and Russia) and down south to the lower Bering sea. However, Atlantic walruses travel from eastern Canada across the Atlantic ocean to western Greenland.
Overall, walruses are quite big and have some admirable qualities so a walrus could be considered reasonably awesome.
