Ngotso (Possible sighting)

Post by Flutterby »

NGOTSO

Characteristics
Large notch in the right ear (centre), some small notches in the left ear. The left tusk is a bit longer and more curved then right one.

Range
Olifants - Tshokwane.


We saw these ellies on 27.09.2012 at Ngotso south.

If you look at his ear and imagine it unfolded, there would be quite a big notch which I think looks like Ngotso's right ear. -O-

Update: Aat identified this ellie as Silolweni. \O

Hi Aat,

We saw this fellow on the 16th October 2014 on the H1-2 not far from Tshokwane. A possible up and coming tusker?
