Book Description
"Best known for their distinctive tusks indicating their age, sex, and social status, walruses have traditionally been the object of both ridicule and affection. The World of the Walrus explores the natural history of these fascinating creatures as well as their place in legend, literature, and song, from the title character in Lewis Carroll's classic poem, who talks to the oysters he is about to eat, to John Lennon's enigmatic song I Am the Walrus. The book concludes with a look at the centuries of exploitation the species has suffered because of human demand for its tusks, skins, and blubber and the prospects for its survival in the face of illegal hunting, pollution, and climate change"--Google Books description.
