He was abandoned by the herd: look what happens when this man sits next to him

In 2012 a walrus calf, 4-6 weeks old, was reported to the Alaska SeaLife Center wandering alone in the ocean. The "small" (which already weighed almost 90 kg) was then taken into custody by the center and followed by a team of vets. In this video you see how this animal, extraordinarily sociable, has a desperate need for physical contact almost more than health care or food.
