The statue of Freya the walrus is unveiled in Oslo

epaselect epa10598228 Walrus expert Rune Aae (L) and initiator Erik Holm attend the unveiling of the sculpture of Freya the walrus, which stands in Kongen Marina by Frognerkilen, in Oslo, Norway, 29 April 2023. The marine mammal, which appeared along the Nordic coast and damaged and often sank small boats trying to get on and relax on them, was euthanized by the Directorate of Fisheries in August 2022. The reason was that the public did not follow the recommendations from the authorities to keep their distance from the 600-kilogram animal. EPA/ANNIKA BYRDE NORWAY OUT
