The Walrus Baby[2] is a character that appears in the Sonic Boom franchise. He is an anthropomorphic baby walrus and the youngest child of Lady Walrus. He is well-known for always ending up in dangerous predicaments, partially due to his mother's poor grip on child safety.[1]

History
TV series
Season one
The Walrus Baby in peril.
During Fire Bot's attack, the Walrus Baby was caught by the robot and almost put into a burning house, but Sonic saved him and returned him to his mother.[4] He would later get up on and fall down from a roof, but was rescued and returned to Lady Walrus by the newcomer Swifty the Shrew.[5]
When sheep stampeded through the village, a chain of events sent the Walrus Baby flying to his doom until Sonic brought him back to his mother.[6] The Walrus Baby was later taken to Puppy Con where he once again ended up in danger, much to his mother's shock.[7] Another time at Meh Burger, the Walrus Baby would mimic Team Sonic's horsing around, prompting Lady Walrus to take him away and find a "precarious edge" for him to play on.[1]
Season two

During a crime wave, the Walrus Baby had his candy stolen by a Weasel Bandit while he got insulted on public TV. He soon after got himself into another dangerous situation.[3] The Walrus Baby later accompanied his brother and mother to the beach and Meh Burger, during which they tried out adding Knuckles to the family.[8] It was not after that that the Walrus Baby would again get up somewhere high and fall down, leaving it to Sonic to save him and return him to his mother.[9]

Personality
The Walrus Baby is a playful and grateful bundle of joy, and loves to cuddle up with his mother. However, he has a knack for getting himself into dangerous situations, although not always voluntarily. Being so young, the Walrus Baby is very impressionable and will try imitating others' behavior, whether if it is good or bad.[1][4][6]
