Photo by acacia.johnson | A Pacific walrus surfaces off the shore of Round Island in Alaska's Walrus Islands State Game Sanctuary. For millennia, this remote isle in Bristol Bay has been a favored summer resting place—known as a haul-out—for Pacific walruses. Since 1985, a state-run permit program has allowed small numbers of visitors to camp on the island each summer. Check out the April edition of National Geographic magazine to read about the experience of camping in the heart of walrus habitat.
