How to Print and Download

Use the Download PDF button for the US Letter file, or choose the A4 link if that paper size fits your printer.
Print in portrait orientation and choose “fit to page” so the whole walrus drawing stays inside the margins.
Black-and-white printing saves ink because the sheets are clean line art with open spaces.
Regular copy paper works well for crayons and pencils; try cardstock for crafts or marker coloring.
To print one favorite sheet, use the Print or Download PDF button on that sheet’s card.

Coloring Tips and Ideas

Offer gray, brown, tan and soft blue crayons, then let kids invent their own Arctic colors too.
On the baby walrus page, use light pencil strokes on the face so the whisker dots stay easy to see.
On detailed pages, color the walruses first, then move to waves, ice chunks, pebbles and sky shapes.
Turn finished walrus pages into a winter bulletin board, ocean unit cover page or quiet-time folder.
Younger kids can color one big area at a time; older kids can add patterns to ice, water and rocks.

Fun Facts About Walruses

Walruses live in chilly northern seas. Pacific walruses use shallow, ice-covered waters of the Bering and Chukchi Seas, between Alaska and Russia according to the U.S. Fish & Wildlife Service.
A walrus face is full of sensitive whiskers. Those whiskers help it feel for clams and other small animals on the seafloor, as FWS explains.
Walruses need rest breaks on sea ice or land. Sea ice is especially important for females and calves because it gives them a place to rest near feeding areas, FWS notes.
Walruses are pinnipeds, a group that also includes seals and sea lions. NOAA says the word pinniped means “fin foot” on its seal facts page.
Walruses can make sounds underwater and in the ocean. NOAA lists walrus knocks and bell calls among marine mammal sounds in its ocean sounds guide.
