A heck of a team these Kruger chaps

Duke’s left tusk was recovered by Crocodile Bridge Section
Ranger Neels van Wyk and Bantam pilot Steven Whitfield

Duke’s right tusk is recovered from the bush by Crocodile
Section rangers Neels van Wyk and Petros Mdaka

Duke above on a better day in 2006. Duke seems to be in good health, in spite of the fact he is no longer in possession of what made him famous, the largest set of tusks of any living elephant in the KNP, and possibly the world.
