ADDED: Is this image a fake? Snopes dealt with it in 2019, and that particular image is fake, but there really was a walrus sleeping on a Russian submarine in 2006 and these pictures of it are not fake:Giant walrus having a nap on a Russian submarine. pic.twitter.com/LEWNmbRZce

The walrus was Paul.
The most surprising thing is that the Russians have submarines that still work...or maybe we aren't seeing the dock behind the photographer...
Is the man the elusive eggman?
Koo koo ka ju.
There's the carpenter!
He makes the Irish walrus look dinky.
One of the most popular images documenting this encounter with the marine mammal — an image featuring a young man with his arms raised in the air — is actually fake.
Although similar pictures were not fake.
The image is a fake. Sort of like that video of Biden answering reporters' questions that was posted on Bloomberg.
Maybe get the salad next time.
The walrus, not the man.
We all live in a Russian submarine....
I am walrus... you are not walrus, I am.
This just in:
China anal swabs detect new 'silent but deadly' transmission of COVID-19 variant.
The Russians are colluding with polar bears to hunt walruses. Think of the pups! Send donations to World Walrus Foundation.
Oh no! The Russkis are building a massive fleet of walrus-armed submarines.
Narr
Close the walrus-sub gap!
How hard is it to get walruses with freakin submarines attached to their backs?
If it weren't for cute animal pictures, we'd probably be living in a post-apocalyptic wasteland. It's the only glue that holds civilization together. The producers of America's Most Amazing Animal Videos should receive the Nobel Peace Prize. But I'm biased. My friend was an editor there early in his career. He spent all his time in a dark room writing the same letter, over and over: "Dear Sir of Madame, it is not amazing that your [cats, dogs, gerbils, fish, etc.] are having sex. Please don't send us any more videos of it."
He says it was better than the year alternating between colorized Hitler and Hello Kitty post-production, and definitely far less upsetting than the first season of The Real World.
What's with all the walrus sightings lately? Is this an end of world thing? Or a Lent thing? Or a new film by M. Night Shyamalan?
It's an old hunter's/fisherman's trick. That little trout you caught? When they take a picture, hold it out at arms length in front of you-- it will look huge. Same thing with the walrus. That guy is likely standing ten feet behind it. Photos don't provide the clues stereo vision does, and monoptical perspectives are untrue.
Inuits are probably looking for their walrus stolen by the Ruskies. They need the food.
Oh no! The Russkis are building a massive fleet of walrus-armed submarines.
To match our fleet of dolphins.
Duh ... Gee, Tennessee!
I tell ya, absolutely tell ya, I *refuse* to reference that Beatle train wreck of a song ever time a picture of a walrus makes an appearance with or without a Russian sub or a lovely Irish coastal scene...koo koo ka joob my ass!
I was on sub "back in the day" and we'd get four foot snakes that would climb up the near vertical sides of the sub over in Guam.
Always creeped me out when I had topside watch at 2 a.m. I'd find a stick and push them back in the water....
Damn! The last sentence referenced that non sensicle John Lennon throw away riff ...never mind...
We all live in the walrus submarine... walrus submarine... walrus submarine...
"Dear Sir of Madame, it is not amazing that your [cats, dogs, gerbils, fish, etc.] are having sex. Please don't send us any more videos of it."
If they do it the way humans do, it would be. But, no, animal sex is wam, bam, thank you ma'am. Male animals are notoriously maculinists. Gentlemen and ladies are few and far between. Unfortunately, Pepe la Pew had a romantic soul, was canceled for mostly imaginary offenses and spite, and will be heard no more.
Awful lot of seagull shit on that submarine. must spend alot of time at the dock and on the surface.
n.n. said "animal sex is wam bam"
Some animals, yes, like rabbits, birds, and cattle. Horses, longer. Cats take a few minutes. Dogs even longer, and during act a dog's penis swells in a way that literally locks the two together. My favorite is the swine, which I raised (farrow-to-finish] for many years.
The boar's equipment has a large, heavily ribbed spiral at the end. This enters the sow's cervix and drives her half-crazy with delight. They'll typically mate for 15 minutes, and the boar produces about 250 mL of ejaculate. Yes. A cupful. One time my then 10 yo son was helping me with hog-mating, and upon observing the process -- and hearing the obviously happy piggies noises -- commented "Wow ... pigs like it just as much as you and Mum do. Cows are so stupid they don't know what they're missing."
Separate note, since friluftsliv came up in another post. FWIW I speak decent Norwegian, and WALRUS is directly from the Old Norwegian for "WHALE-HORSE".
Huh. It doesn’t appear to be ‘fake’ at all. The sailor (presumably) was switched out - photoshopped - from the original. There was a walrus on a submarine. Now, if it was ‘here I am with a walrus on a submarine...’
