A female walrus attacked a rubber boat of tourists from Russia in the Franz Josef Land in the Arctic Ocean.
A video of eyewitnesses on board the tourist ship was posted on social media.
It shows the animal rushing at a boat suspended by cables and piercing it with its tusks, causing it to deflate.
At the same time, a cub can be seen next to her. Apparently, by attacking the Russians’ boat, the walrus mother was trying to protect her baby and her territory from uninvited guests.
We have a new idol after the shark, it’s a walrus 💙😄
