In this picture Piñera is being attacked by a walrus, at a boat fair, in Valdivia. This happened when he was looking for supporters during his presidential campaign at the fish market before the elections. Apparently, Piñera was too close to the fence which walruses usually approach for food. Piñera who was scared to death, said the sea creature had almost kissed him, even though, to me, the walrus was more likely to have him for lunch. I really don´t know who this picture was taken by, but it appeared in “Las Últimas Noticias” newspaper, in 2005. I like it because I think it is a photographic success and the horror, dread and disgust in his face are absolutely unique.   Could this animal have been hired by “La Concertación” members?
