May have been broken off in fight?

How do you manage to sell it, if you pick it up?

Ja, they normally break off in a fight...apparently it sounds like a gunshot, Flutts!

Lis, this is SA!

It was purely a personal interest, RP, if by chance I'd find a piece

I'm sure an informal trader will help you to sell, Lis.

I "found" one once during a guided walking safari in Zimbabwe. I am sure the guides knew it was there and left it there to show to the tourist. It was not a nice piece (brownish and the tip was missing), but big and very heavy, impossible to carry on kilometers back to the car.

Dindingwe, but I'll be driving $O/\$

I found a small piece while walking the Olifants Trail as a schoolkid. I was happy and showed the ranger, intending to keep it as a souvenir! $O/\$

He threw it into the veld and said what you find in the bush stays in the bush!

I suppose that he is right

Found a porcupine quill on our last trip and was tempted to take it.
But better judgement made me leave it behind.
