The KUMANA story:

Yesterday I received more photos of KUMANA and I think a good moment to show a bit more of him.

Wonderful photos of the tuskers - good to see the tusk development so clearly illustrated.

Mandzemba's tusks are really stretching well and Komana has now become a tusker of note !

Aat, your TUSKERS OFAFRICA is a winner !

Turn off the "sound".... O** if you don't like music :-)
