Re: Elephants of Pilanesberg
Are the first two pics of the same ellie? The third one's tusks look slightly different.steamtrainfan wrote:
The second pic looks like Nkemele. There is another ellie with short broken tusks called Nick, so will have to try to find out.

Wondering if this could also be Nkemele?

I think this is Uno. Only has the right tusk, and a notch/indentation on the right ear.

I took this pic in January 2012 on the Tilodi Drive.
In the second picture you can clearly see a hole in his right ear (the ear on the other side)
Then in September 2013 I took this pic of the ellie marching up Eloff..uhm, Kubu Drive near the centre. Is it the same ellie and does it have a name with such a distinctive mark.

Here is a lone Ellie taken in Sept 2013 at Ratlhogo Hide. Not sure it's a bull.
