Ayveq, the New York Aquarium's Masturbating Walrus, dead at 14 →[More:]

Jan and I encountered Ayveq during her October visit to NYC.

He introduced himself by unleashing a massive flow of shit into his tank.

Another Brooklyn Paper article on Ayveq's autoerotic habits.

Rest in peace, you big pinniped pervert.

... bizarre, though oddly compelling, masturbation rituals ...

OK. I've been through goatse and tubgirl. I suppose I have to look at this too. Is there a video around anywhere?

Internationally famous? What, is there a DVD series?

YouTube's got a few videos of the oddly compelling rituals.

Internationally famous?

It happened in New York. By definition, that makes it internationally famous.

The exact cause of death will not be known until an autopsy. A small memorial was held for Aquarium staffers on Monday. Ayveq’s body was then taken to the Bronx Zoo for cremation.

Well I guess he won't be having that autopsy anytime soon...

Oh noes! I was only telling some friends about him today. Here's my post from the day I went to see him.

I suppose you could say he's kicked the buckit.

I smell a cover-up. Clearly, he was assassinated.

Here's a little video of him doing his party trick.
