Walrus hair, or vibrissae, serves as sensitive tactile organs for the animal. These whisker-like structures help walruses navigate their environment, especially in murky waters, by detecting changes in their surroundings and sensing prey. The vibrissae are highly sensitive to touch and allow walruses to locate food, such as clams and other benthic organisms, on the ocean floor.
