Wally the walrus climbs on boats in the Isles of Scilly

Watch enormous walrus, Wally, as he befriends boats in Porthcressa, Isles of Scilly. PBO contributors Tom and Lorraine Owen were onboard their motorboat Thea at the time and filmed Wally's exploits. The walrus likes to climb on boats and inflatables and, since March, has also been spotted in France, Spain, Cornwall and Ireland.
It's unusual for an Arctic walrus to be so far south. Let's hope he makes his long journey back home soon...
You can read Tom and Lorraine's story at www.pbo.co.uk and find out more about their wooden boatbuilding adventures in their book Seawater and Sawdust.

[@edwardnorkett4290]

He seems rather tame for a wild walrus?

[@ram64man]

He’s got used to people on boats around him, some even fed him (a big no no) unfortunately he has the iq of a toddler thinking each boat is a place to explore or get out of the water , unfortunately he seems to have enjoyed his takeaway s in Europe and gained a lot of weight sometime capsizing or damaging light boats with his tusks as he try’s to climb out of the water e.g. a boogy board looks just like an ice shelf

[@deathbycheese850]

That's how much he should weigh. Also, you can't judge an animal's intelligence based​ on a human intelligence test.@ram64man

[@agltg1970]

He's trying to get on the boat

Любимка💕✌🙏

[@daviddean6079]

Were he to go round to the coast of Sussex or Kent and landed up on the beach, he could be given permanent resident status and immediately qualify for benefits, of various kinds……

[@rachelm.a.4224]

I've a great idea. Why don't we give him your gaff and push you out into the sea, ya stirrer

[@jungbolosse3034]

If he can survive the waste in british waters

[@carlos6796]
