Tuskers of Kruger Discussions & Identification

The other one (s130) is not a named one , I might have a picture of him in my database , but not sure it's the same one, picture is dated 2014.

I will copy the pictures to my database if you allow me

Saw this elephant bull on the 09.02.20 on the upper S130 at a larger pond on the left hand side

Pumbaa, I have seen the same elephant, I think, in the same place in 2012/13

I don't know if Bushcraft ever sent these pics from Lower Sabie, July 2012?

I had this pic on my phone for quite some time but unfortunately have lost the ref to the photographer or detail of the particular animal but looking at other photos I am suspecting it to be Duke,
Aat, can you ID this tusker ?

I think its Kambaku ..one of the original Mag 7 ..Duke had thinner tusks

Hi 100ponder,

I checked as good as possible and like Peter Betts says I also believe it's Kambaku. The only doubt I have is about his right tusk. I see some "damage" at the tip of his tusk and can't see that clearly on the pics I have and also not really visible on the displayed tusks in the letaba hall. But... I can't find a better match so it may be depend on time when he has been photographed. If this "damage" at the tip was a grass notch like thing , it could be gone later on. I am really curious when this picture was made.
