This video says about itself:
The Alaska SeaLife Center in Seward has been caring for two orphaned walruses in recent months. The animals, named Pakak and Mitik, require around-the-clock care and seek out frequent contact with their caregivers. Both were discovered near Barrow in summer. The animals will soon move to new homes at zoos in Indianapolis and New York. Photographed on October 4, 2012.

Wow! This is what love looks like!
Yes, the video also mentions that the two orphaned walruses really like each other. So, I was a bit disturbed that they would go to two different zoos; why?
I thought about it and do not understand either!

Any way that we can all put pressure on them not to part the walruses????

I have an art blog…yes. But this is just too adorable not to reblog.:)
Thanks for re-blogging this, even if it is different from your usual blog subjects š
I have art on my blog as well, but the blog is very un-specialized: forty categories.
