Tuskers of Kruger Discussions & Identification

Post by aat »

The first one I like to post here is a very unexpected one: MFULENI

Last update I got was dated December 2011 and to my very big surprise I received a few pictures of him just a few days ago, pictures made in November 2017, so about 6 years later

Maybe it is the angle, but the tusks do not look very long though very robust \O

Angle and distance do make a difference, this one with a different angle is may be better ?

Also clear he is getting old
