As a maritime nation, Norway is no stranger to bizarre aquatic attractions. The latest is a popular — but destructive — walrus named Freya.
Freya had become a local celebrity of sorts, but her tendency to lounge on boats made her a public safety concern, and the decision to euthanize her was made by Norway's Department of Fisheries.
It's a sad end to a unique saga, and one that isn't free of controversy.
