This bibliography is a collection of PDF files compiled in 2013 by Suzann G. Speckman, U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service, Region 7.
This collection consists of 71 reports and abstracts of reports about marine mammals, particularly the walrus, published in Russian between 1936 and 2009 and written primarily by Soviet and Russian authors. They are available here in English, some with the Russian text. Some reports were written by Russians and first published in English-language publications, and some were written by non-Russian/Soviet citizens but appeared in Russian.
In addition, Suzann Speckman also compiled a collection of 18 reports about the walrus in Alaska published between 1960 and 2009 mostly by U.S. federal agencies. They are available on another webpage.
