The tusks on the Alf photo approx match Kaleka's tusks some 4 to 8 years ago.

The Alf photo also show more blunt tusk tips than Kaleka.

Your Elephant has a lot of the same small features as Kaleka has, Alf \O

When you have a proper photo, please post it \O and if you have more than one, even better ;-)
