Tusk size

• by Batfan

  What enormous tusks on the first one!
  Also, the third one has two different length tusks - its right one being noticeably longer than its left. Could this be useful in identifying this elephant again, or is it fairly common to have tusks of different lengths ?

  wow, impressive!

  both are interesting and likely to be matched. Both are females, first one could be near her 40s, second around 30. The third one looks like a male to me (see broad width of the trunk between the tusks), but I have seen some breasts at the end of ACP000dcd5 (sec. 10)

  I will give them prospective names, in case we find them again:

  first one: EleFemGS01

  second one: EleFemGS02

  Thanks!!
