Magnus, a young male walrus, after touring Scotland's north-east coast, has been spotted in Norway, ending his Celtic sojourn, with climate change possibly driving his southbound excursion.
An 8ft young male walrus named Magnus has been touring the Scottish coastline, visiting Stronsay, Lossiemouth, Macduff, Fraserburgh and Findochty. The Arctic visitor, estimated to be around 2.5m long, has been drawing large crowds who watch him sleep, scratch against metal posts and roll into the water. Experts from BDMLR say he appears to be in good condition and is simply exploring, with one theory linking increased walrus sightings in UK waters to Arctic sea ice loss.
