This huge bull was shot south of Khaudum in 2004. Both tusks had been broken in a fight with another bull but the remains of the right tusk still weighed in at 115 pounds. Since the diameter at the lip was 59.6 cm (23.4 inches) and still no less than 52 cm (20.4 inches) at the fracture line, it is safe to assume that the missing part had a length of about one metre. Thus he was an exceptional tusker who can safely be ranked among the biggest elephants ever taken.
