Dozer, a Pacific Walrus, is visiting Point Defiance Zoo & Aquarium on a breeding loan as part of AZA's Species Survival Plan program and the Walrus Conservation Consortium. He weighs 3,650 lb and has 17 inch tusks. He is one of only 19 Pacific Walruses in North America.
thats right, his name is Dozer and he looks just a little different than my Dozer but none the less his name fits.

Trying to dig a pond without the dozer island!!! He was in the wood, behind our house, for about five minutes and slid off into this very small creek. Which was or is going to feed our pond!!!

Poooooor poor Dozer had a skin allergy and this was the only way he could stop itching his ears and licking his feet.
At the British Wildlife Centre, Newchapel, Surrey, 'Frodo' dozes in the morning sunshine. He's still listening, as the Keeper's talk is due imminently.

Dozer is one of two male deer at the Animal Habitats on Grandfather Mountain. He was born in 2004 and supposed to be released into the wild, but new state regulations made that impossible. To prevent fights between the males, Dozer was neutered. Since the growth of the antlers on the bucks is regulated by sex hormones, which he doesn't have any more, he doesn't shed his antlers and they don't grow normally. So he is left with some odd-looking stumps for antlers. Kubota, the other male, is one year older and had a vasectomy in 2004 to prevent breeding, but will still act like a buck and go into hormone-fueled rut from October to February. I guess Dozer just tries to stay out of Bo's way during that time as much as possible.
Sad news: I just learned on my last trip to Grandfather Mountain that Dozer had to be put down after he broke his leg in December. :-(

The trailer attached to the dozer is a transit tank. These are used to bring fuel from the bulk storage tank on the perimeter of base to be pumped into underground fuel flubbers approximately 40 metres below the surface. The flubbers each hold 20,000 litres of fuel, or 100 drums. This helps keep me warm and my lights working!!
