Olifante, I am not sure if this is the "Scar Face" you are referring to?

We saw him in Feb this year close to Punda Maria.

Yes, have to agree, he certainly looks as if he has been round the block a couple of times, 8)
but still an impressive sight to have striding along next to the vehicle. :D

THANKS Elsa!

Yup - that looks like him. Good to know he is still around! We've heard some stories about the old guy, but haven't spent enough time in Punda to find him. Hopefully we'll have some luck in August!

Punda Mission - confirmed [[size=50]size=85](...and of course just loving being in good'ol Kruger... :dance: )
