News - Walrus attacks on spectacled eider ducks

Post  Safari Maiden on Wed May 12, 2010 12:19 pm

"Walruses have been filmed attacking spectacled eider ducks in the Bering Sea, behaviour never seen before.

Walruses are known to feed on bottom-dwelling animals such as clams, so it is highly unusual to see them attempt to catch and eat ducks. "

This is unusual behaviour indeed and to read the rest of the article click HERE.

An interesting piece of footage, the walrus certainly cleared a large space around him.

Thanks for the link SM
