Oh no, that is terrible,
wonder what has caused that, so the guys must have been one of the last few to see him with both his tusks in tact.

Wicked hey? Is his left tusk...

Story and a few pics by Bucky here.

Ag shampies, how very sad, that must be painful for all ... poor Duke!

Ooopsie!

I hope the damage is not too severe. Bit of a shocker as we have seen the old king of the tuskers in magnificent shape just days ago...

What kind of fool 'phones and says "I can't talk..."

Theyr'e obviuosly drunk.

Devastating about the tusk, though!

Not Nice RP

I guess he was making a trunk call not drunk call! (Obviously you should use spell check RP sometimes?

Sioux,

I made the spelling mistakes purposely as a self-reflecting ironic faux-pas, negating the legitimacy of my rude comment!

WTM would understand!

More importantly, I see the tusk problem is on "Tale of the Tusk" under "Animals".

Lol , didn't they post anything yet , aiiiy these boys .

Let me try upload some pics one I get them across to my pc (all 40 gb of them , must have been my 40'ish lion sightings )

Got him some years ago on video.

For those who are interested, Duke was seen 2 days ago on the Muntshe Back loop. He seems to be in good health and the broken tusk doesnt seem to be bothering him. Still as docile as ever, not a crowd of vehicles either. Will post new pics of him as soon as they are downloaded.
