More "Shocking" footage of Isilo, the monster bull elephant.

doesn't he make the hairs on your arms stand up

odd to see an aussie bank advertise on an African site
 
Majestic Creature!

Just out of curiosity will any of our PH's venture an estimate on the weight of those tusks?
 
Ivory is long but looks a bit thin to my untrained eye. Depending on the size of the nerve etc., I would guess, though again I'm no pro, that the ivory would go about 90-100 a side perhaps.
 
I have a hard time trying to figure the circumference for the "circumference x length = weight" equation. My guess is around 110-115. Interesting to find out what the pros say.
 
gday ses ,wheel s
how long do boys think them tusks would be
7 foot maybe a tad longer ?
boy oh boy wouldn't they make a great entrance to a trophy room
 
I think the tusks would be longer than 7'. It is my understanding the equation deals with exposed tusk. 17" circumference x 6.5' exposed = 110 lbs.

They would make a great entrance into a trophy room. Hopefully someday I will have a pair that will make a great entrance to a kids play house.
