He finally retired from the KNP in 1948 and died in 1957 (?) at the age of 93 (according to my memory) .

Rooies - you're making us use our brains over a weekend - it's not fair! :twisted:

...........Safari Gal you're right - Polar Bears are only in the Arctic.
Can't be Penguins - they're only in the Antarctic....and anyway, they are not mammals

Walrus???
