Nice image of a tusker looking intently at the camera!The tusks are grown in such a way that the movement of the trunk probably is hindered to a certain extend.

Beautiful long tusks. I think the tusk might have got broken in a fight. Nice to sight it in the open, grazing peacefully. Thanks for sharing.

We have sighted this one earlier. Sad to see that its tusk is partly broken. The way tusks grow in elephants is different. Some are divergent, some cross etc. The tusks make them look even more majestic. Thanks for sharing.

Cheers,
