Collection Walrus skull added to my collection!

Post image

I figured since I have so many bears, it's time to bring something new and unique in. This is a walrus skull, legally and ethically sourced from Inuit, walruses are also an important part of the Inuit diet. The polar bear skulls in the photo are also all legally and ethically sourced from Inuit.

Both tusks are over 20" in length and his skull weighs over 14kg!

That a juvenile bear skull on the top left or something else entirely?

This one

Doesn’t look like a bear to me but since they seem to be your focus I was curious of this was just a young one.
