Tusks help walruses in several ways, primarily for defense and social interactions. They use their long tusks to assert dominance during fights and establish social hierarchy within groups. Additionally, tusks assist walruses in hauling themselves out of the water onto ice or land, as well as aiding in foraging for food on the ocean floor.
