Petition: Demand Justice For Freya the Walrus

A 1,300-pound walrus named Freya captured hearts in Norway and became somewhat of a tourist attraction in the city. However, Norway warned that the public was coming too close to the wild animal and threatened to kill her if the public did not stay away.

The public continued to get close and was even teasing poor Freya. A boat owner was even seen poking Freya with a boat oar to get her off of his boat. During the video, the man even seems to be enjoying taunting the poor animal that is in the water that she called home.

Heartbreaking news came just days after the government’s threats, and they ultimately euthanized Freya. Walruses are protected in Norway, and previously, the Directorate of Fisheries said that euthanasia was out of the question, so what changed?

It is not her fault that humans would not stay away from her. She was not hurting anyone and was simply in her natural habitat. There is no reason that authorities should not have handled the public and monitored the situation instead of euthanizing an innocent animal. Sign this petition to demand justice for Freya!
