I photographed these 4 young walrus in a zoo. They seemed to enjoy each others company and kept in close contact.

Great capture John. I'd probably recommend cropping out the other two walruses on the left and maybe some of the bottom. The front walrus is out of focus and the other one doesn't contribute to the scene in my opinion. I think that focuses the attention on the two interacting.
