On July 31st, our family celebrated the birthday of Walter, leader of our walrus pack here in South Korea! We don't have an exact date for his birthday, but July 31st was the day we smuggled- I mean brought (I always get those two words confused) Walter into our shelter and into our hearts! Ever since he's just been a bundle of joy!... And tusks and fat.... But mostly joy! The party was a blast! The celebration was complete with balloons, a clown, and party games like pin the tail on the donkey!
It was only later that we realized Walter is a walrus, and as we all know, walruses are deathly afraid of clowns. Walter immediately began to breakdown, and withing moments, was atop the clown, bellowing loudly and rearing on his hind flippers! After five minutes of continuous bellowing and trampling, the trainers were finally able to remove Walter from on top of Honker, the clown. Honker suffered severe blunt force trauma, as well as a crushed pelvis and ribcage. He is expected to make a full recovery, however,but for insurance reasons, he will be buried in the South Korea National Cemetery come next Monday morning. We will all mourn Honker's passing, and his heroic deeds will not soon be forgotten. May he rest in peace.
Help us, the loving people here at the "Feed the Walruses in South Korea" Foundation, end the starvation of helpless little walrus babies.
