Tuskers of Kruger Discussions & Identification

Hi All,

I received several recently made pictures of tuskers. One of the tuskers , KUMBA, changed his looks a bit overnight.

Here photographed december 21st:

The next day same tusker but the hole in his right ear (top) has gone and now he has this "notch". Good example how ID marks of a tusker can change overnight.

December 22nd :
