I hope the Russians love walruses too

Fashion Walrus is ready for his closeup.
Ready for some sun! Your Russian Navy at work in the Arctic. And in the Antarctic?
Bust o' Lenin, chilling out. Never forget, comrades:

For men and walruses.

Bonus question: Any common derivation of Rus (tribe of, founders of Russia) and wal-rus? They're both from the cold part of the world. What if they're like related or something? Weird!

Sadly, no. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Walrus#Etymology

They do look like Rus vikings tho, this is a very good folk etymology on your part, in my opinion.

Thank you, Muddy. Is folk etymology a thing? It sounds awesome.
