A walrus that became a global celebrity last year after it was seen frolicking and basking in a Oslo fjord before it was euthanised by the authorities has been honoured with a bronze sculpture in Norway.
The life-size sculpture by Norwegian artist Astri Tonoian was unveiled on Saturday at the Oslo marina not far from the place where the actual 600kg (1,300lbs) mammal was seen resting and relaxing during the summer of 2022.
Norwegian news agency NTB said a crowdfunding campaign was kicked off last autumn to finance the sculpture.
The private initiative managed to gather about 270,000 Norwegian kroner (around £20,200) by October, NTB said.
