Previously on "I never realized walruses were so flippin' large"
The largest known bull elephant seal weighed 11,000 lb (5,000 kg) and measured 22.5 ft (6.9 m) in length. This makes the elephant seal the largest member of the order Carnivora.
Nah, I saw something larger than that with 6" hoop earrings, a "Lonsdale" hoody and a double buggy, getting off a bus in Weymouth, only last week.
You would enjoy the stuffed walrus in the Horniman Museum. Some explorers brought the skin back and gave it to a taxidermist. The taxidermist hadn't seen a walrus before and didn't know they had wrinkles, so he just kept stuffing it until it was full.
The natural history museum in Tring is worth a visit, even if it is full of stuffed animals massacred by one or two generations of the Rothschild family.
As you wander into one of the rooms, there in front of you is a display case and on top of it is an elephant seal.
I was utterly gobsmacked. Once I had come to, I decided it was a fake.
You see these things on the telly, and they are clearly the size of a small, legless cow.
