Enraged Walrus Sinks Russian Military Vessel in Arctic
She wanted to protect her children.
A walrus attacked the boat of a comprehensive expedition of the Northern Fleet of the Russian Navy near the Franz Josef Land archipelago.
As said the Russian Geographical Society Center, whose representatives were part of the expedition, the incident occurred during the landing of a group of researchers at Cape Heller.
The walrus is believed to have been concerned for the safety of her calves, so she attacked the vessel. The boat sank, but all members of the landing party safely reached the shore.
"One more confirmation that no one is waiting for man in the Arctic," — noted the RGO Center.
Earlier, Russia for the first time sent the floating nuclear power plant Akademik Lomonosov to the Arctic.
