"Old Tuskers" elephants at Amboseli

Poaching is really a horrible problem in Kenya and Tanzania.  The "old tuskers" in Amboseli are a real jewel.  The park rangers and the anti-poaching units expend a lot of effort to protect these giants.
 

Old Tuskers with giant tusks are one of the famed attributes of Amboseli NP

His tusks are so large - they almost drag the ground as he walks
