Walrus?

These figures are on the Grand Fountain in Fountain Gardens in Paisley.
I don't know why but the fountain certainly looks grand.
The 1868 cast-iron fountain was designed and built by the Sun Foundry, Glasgow.  It is the only one of its kind and stands an impressive eight metres tall as the centrepiece of the Fountain Gardens in Paisley.  
The fountain was gifted to the town by the Coats Family of threadmakers, making it an important part of the town's legacy from its proud textile-making past.
The extra photos are the statue of Robert Burns also in the park and a description board about the statue and the fountain.
