#walrus $WAL @Walrus 🦭/acc Walruses mainly feed on clams, snails, worms, and small sea animals. They dive to the ocean floor and use their whiskers to feel for food buried in sand. Instead of breaking shells, walruses use powerful suction to remove the soft meat inside. A single walrus can eat thousands of clams in one day. Feeding takes up a large part of their daily routine because of their huge body size. Walruses play an important role in maintaining balance in marine ecosystems. Pollution and climate change are affecting ocean life, which reduces food availability and makes survival more difficult for walruses.
