A walrus hunt turned into a life-and-death situation for three hunters from Sanirajak, Nunavut, on Saturday.
At the floe edge near the community of about 900 people, the men set out on a small aluminum boat after spotting and shooting the walrus, according to search and rescue volunteers who spoke to the hunters.
As the men drew close enough to haul it up, the walrus struck the boat with its tusks and tried to climb on board.
