During my expedition to Svalbard we visited a Walrus colony.  The sound and smell was incredible with probably over a hundred of these huge animals hauled out on the sand or floating around in the water.  As with most of the time we spent in Svalbard the weather was cold and incredibly windy.  We stood watching the colony and this particular one caught my eye as it was continually stabbing its companions with those huge horns.
