Volunteers from the Alaska SeaLife Center attempted to find the baby's mother, but they had no luck!

Two Pacific walrus calves are feeling great after their periless journey.

Pakak and Mitik were both rescued near Barrow, Alaska and have been steadily improving in condition.

The bigger of the two babes, Pakak, weighs 300 pounds and is a bit more lively than Mitik, who is at a low 175 pounds.

Walruses are very social animals so the two rescues are being housed together at the Alaska Sea Life Center to play and communicate with each other.

And these two LOVE to play!

Check out the aDORable walrus calves (above) and learn more about their journey!

While on a family fishing trip in Alaska, a 16-year-old girl reeled in one hell of a catch…

An 88-inch, 375-pound halibut!

She's no stranger to catching big fish as she once caught a 50-inch, 34-pound tiger muskie!

Though that was nothing compared to the monster fish she recently caught.

The halibut was so impossibly huge that they decided to only photograph it then release it, because it could lay around four million eggs a year.

So she got to photograph her prize catch and then release it for the sake of the environment!

Check out the video (above) to see the enormous fish!
