I think I’ll pass on that one…….
Wow man. I don't even have a snappy comeback for that one....
Like peyronies this conversation has taken a hard turn
Who is the chair maker?
The real Arkansas toothpick
I have fly swishers coming from a black and blue wildebeest this fall.
Not sure, I commissioned them through Richard of Afton House and AHG Shipping.
No issue with the pods, clean and dry… packed in checked bag. Once they go through an ele gut, most all the viable seed parts inside the pods are dissolved away. After washed and dried not much to get excited about. Same for a few small pieces of hardwood and 2-3 mopane ele chew sticks. I guess it might give some inspector job security to spend time getting excited about that type thing, running around in a circle hollering, “biohazard!”
At worst I suppose they’d take them and pitch them in the trash.

and one of the chew sticks. Elephants will stand around after eating and chew on these sticks, grinding between their molars, like someone chewing on a toothpick. 
Recovery of those is probably less “offensive” than the gut rocks in a gator.Here’re pics of some marula pods, post ele

One of my Mozambique trackers offered me bracelet he got out of a croc, I tactfully turned him down. Thought it was a bit morbid!
Gut rocks from gators or crocs would be comparable to gastroliths (gizzard stones) from dinosaurs.
