The walrus is a massive marine mammal that lives in the freezing waters above the Arctic continental shelf. These social animals use their long canine tusks for fighting, establishing dominance and hauling their heavy bodies onto sea ice for resting.

They forage the ocean floor for mollusks and crustaceans using their sensitive whiskers. This detailed replica captures the robust skull and impressive tusks of a male specimen.

Wally, the walrus male skull replica, is really afraid of polar bears for good reasons. However, he does love their beautiful super soft fur and has decorated his front living room with a huge pelt that hangs on his wall.

Cooper, the California elephant male seal skull replica, agrees with Wally about fearing polar bears.

Nate, the Northern fur seal male skull replica, shutters just thinking about a polar bear.

Ellie, the California elephant seal female skull replica, is right there with her husband Cooper. Her teeth chatter, both her flippers freeze in fear, and her heart skips a few beats just thinking about polar bears.
