When I saw this fantastic AP image by Murad Sezer on the venerable Christian Science Monitor, I thought of one thing: I Has a Bucket!.
Of course, this lovable walrus, Sara, doesn't have a bucket, or even a buckit. She is performing with her Russian trainer during a show at the newly opened Istanbul Dolphinarium in Istanbul, Turkey. While it's true walruses don't play instruments exactly in the wild -- much as chimps don't generally smoke cigars or rollerskate on their own -- many do argue that well-cared-for animals in captivity can help inspire conservation.
Sadly, wild walruses are seriously threatened by global warming.
