EDITORS COMMENTS
. This print captures the essence of summer in the Arctic as a young bull walrus, Odobenus rosmarus, takes a well-deserved break on an ice floe. With its sleek body and magnificent tusks, this adorable marine mammal seems to be enjoying some serious R&R amidst the stunning backdrop of Greenland Sea. As temperatures rise due to global warming, these charismatic creatures become vital indicators of climate change. Their presence here serves as a reminder that our actions have far-reaching consequences for vulnerable species like the walrus. The ivory tusks of this keystone species are not only awe-inspiring but also play crucial roles in their survival and ecosystem balance. This young male exemplifies the resilience and adaptability required to thrive in such extreme conditions. Nature enthusiasts will appreciate how photographer Steve Kazlowski skillfully captured this moment in time, showcasing the beauty and wilderness of Svalbard Archipelago's Spitsbergen region. The image transports us into an untouched world where water meets ice, inviting us to marvel at wildlife thriving against all odds. So let's take inspiration from this chilled-out walrus and embrace those lazy summer days while we still can!
