Queen Victoria called me a fine specimen and she knew her onions.

Pedro Pascal as the best damn looking walrus you ever did see.

After many years of dreaming, I've finally seen the @HornimanMuseum walrus in real life. Personally I think this is his best angle! And a huge thanks to Lucy and the Horniman Learning team for sharing some of their inspiring and brilliant learning practices with me.

Forget the Easter lambs, chicks and rabbits - what about the Easter Walrus?!
There is a reason I look like a chocolate egg.
I AM the egg.

I said-a flip, flop, the flippie, the flippie to the flip flip flop-a you don't stop the rock it to the bang-bang boogie, say up jump the boogie, to the rhythm of the boogie, the beat.
Athankyew.

Heard on the grapevine that I’ve been mentioned by Mr Stewart Lee on a ponklecast.
Can confirm I have no plans to ever deflate #RoundBoi4Life
Do come by and say hi

It's a tusking disgrace

On today of all days, it continues to be an outrage that there is no walrus emoji!? What is a dreamboat like me to do, when one wants to converse pictorially?

Walrus walrus burning bright,
Up there in the sky at night
How I wonder what you are
Twinkle twinkle little star
…Oh, that one seems to have got away from me

No man is an island – and no walrus is an island either, but I do quite like my iceberg palace.

A poem by me, for me:
How do I love thee? Let me count the ways.
1 – lots
2 – loads
3 – quite a lot
4 – a fair bit
5 – tons
6 – more than anything

Here is a poem I penned about my favourite subject – me! ✒
Shall I compare thee to an autumn day?
Thou art more brown, more tusky, and more rotund,
More fabulous, and more divine.

A fascinating story of Victorian philanthropy, intrigue and passion, out this autumn!

One of the more unusual items in our archive collection is this 13th-century bestiary, or book of beasts.
It includes illustrations of both real and mythical creatures with a moral lesson about each one. Here we have a griffin, a manticore, and a walrus.

"I've got gadgets and gizmos a-plenty." 🧜♀️
Someone pass me a dinglehopper to tease out my tresses.

I've heard lots of hair talk around the galleries recently, so I'm changing up the look.
I hear red hair is in right now - what do you think of the new do?

What I like to refer to as a svelte one tonne.
Girthy, round and springy, much like the perfect pound cake 🍰

The @HornimanWalrus made a guest appearance in my School Session on the #RutlandSeaDragon yesterday, as by coincidence it weighs about the same as the single #plasterjacket containing (only!) the ichthyosaur's head

You visit me on a valentine date
Sauntering around my great heft,
I marvel at your adoring gait
And ardent exclamations of love professed.

Roses are red
Sometimes they are flawless
Thank you so much
For not touching the walrus

Yes please, come and make your small effigies to my glorious self.
With each one, I grow stronger and more powerful than you can possibly imagine.
