The Walrus' Latin name, Odobenus rosmarus, means tooth-walking sea cow.. The walrus uses its prominent tusks to pull its bulk from the ocean onto pack ice.The process looks like the walrus is walking on its tusks, hence the name.The walrus is a single species but has two subspeciesâthe Pacific Walrus and the Atlantic Walrus. Both subspecies are similar in appearance, diet and behavior with the Pacific Walrus tending to be a little larger.he process looks like the walrus is walking on its tusks, hence the name.

The species name rosmarus is Scandinavian. The Norwegian manuscript Konungsskuggsja, thought to date from around AD 1240, refers to the walrus as rosmhvalr in Iceland and rostungr in Greenland (walruses were by now extinct in Iceland and Norway, while the word evolved on in Greenland).urrounding the tusks is a broad mat of stiff bristles ('mystacial vibrissae '), giving the walrus a characteristic whiskered appearance. There can be 400 to 700 vibrissae in 13 to 15 rows reaching 30 cm (12 in) in length, though in the wild they are often worn to much shorter lengths due to constant use in foraging.
