Watch as abandoned baby walrus gets second chance at life, round-the-clock care

An orphaned baby walrus found abandoned is getting a new lease on life after she was rescued from a remote corner of Alaska.

The female Pacific walrus, who has not yet been named, was found emaciated and dehydrated with "small superficial wounds covering her body" in Utqiagvik, Alaska after her herd left the area, the Alaska SeaLife Center said in a news release Monday.

The center rescued the baby last month with the approval of the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service's Wildlife Response Program.
