This is not an entry, just a note to say that I agree with one of the above posters. That's "him" alright. :twisted:

I agree to Freda.

'Ndlulamithi earned his name from his appearence which is a traditional Tsonga word meaning "taller than trees". He was a very tall elephant, probably about 3.4m high at the shoulder.
Being an aggressive elephant, he was seldom seen, but his age was estimated to be about 58 years. He died of natural causes in 1985.'

His magnificent tusks can be seen at the Elephant Museum, in Letaba camp:

Could it Maybe be Mahudzi? Can't quite make out distinctive marks on ears, but seems to have the inverted V... :huh:

I'm checking in my Big Book on Tuskers that i Bought... Great Tuskers of Africa...

Need help with this one please, seen between Balule and Satara. Had 2 nice tusks and a big piece out of his left ear.
Was rather camera shy :roll:

Freda, might he be an unnamed tusker? Especially if he is a bit camera shy! Have you entered him in the emerging tuskers competition?

Happy 2008!
