Can a pet walrus be kept?

You could always get a plush lolrus with bukkit.

Which, somewhat surprisingly, is even bigger than a walrus. The largest of the latter reach maybe 4,400 pounds, but the largest known elephant seal weighed over 11,000.

Ren Hoek: Excuse me, sir. Would you like to buy some rubber neepples?

Horse: No…No, but do you have any rubber walrus protectors?[produces Walrus]

Walrus (whispering): Call the police!

On the subject of keeping a walrus:

“If you love it let it go. If it returns to you cherish it, if not it was never truly yours.”

Couldn’t find it on cheezburger but here’s the story.

Ignorance fought.

I love this board.

He’s REAL?! But he looks…so…cartoonish! Is that just me?

Paging iamthewalrus(:3=. I’d love to hear his take on this one.

“I deeply sympathize.”
With sobs and tears he sorted out
Those of the largest size,
Holding his pocket-hankerchief
Before his streaming eyes.
:cool:

It’s also illegal under the Mann Act to “transport a female across state lines…” Oh, wait, never mind, that’s for immoral porpoises.

I knew there were places that had trained walruses, but trained Elephant Seals? I can’t get anything from runner pat’s link, does anyone know what the backstory is?

I just checked it and got a 503 error, hopefully just temporary.

The elephant seal in question was trained to do tricks including holding the bucket and “smiling”(sticking tongue out).

Photos were given the LOLcat treatment (here are the 2 originals).

LOLrus came into being as some thought the seal was a walrus and later photos of walruses hunting for their stolen bucket continued the meme.

Those pictures always bothered me because it didn’t look like a walrus. But I have to agree, “Lolrus” sounds better than “LolElephant Seal”.

So, I guess the question here is … can an elephant seal be kept?

What about Lolephant Seal?

But we already have a regular lolephant.

WHY do you want a walrus? This is killing me.
