Hi, a vey heavy storm is coming over the Netherlands, no way to go out now unless you like a free flight and not knowing where and how you will get back to earth.

About the picture above including discussion, I only can say I have never seen "him" before , assuming it's a bull as RP says. Even when "it" is a lady also not known to me.

Certainly it's NOT Makungwe and NOT Mamerle. 100% sure about that.


Next to that I will introduce a NEW Tusker , named GUDZANI. This tusker is coming out of nothing, never seen him before.
I guess he is coming from one of the "unkown" areas between Satara and Mozambique , he came from that direction when photographed near the junction S41 and S90.

Another great update regarding one of the yet not named future tuskers is SOUTH_01 (photographed in 2013 -Ian Leach-, 2014 -Dawie Fourie- and 2015 -Charlene Koen-. After 2015 I did not see anything about him until...... Yesterday

So after about 5 years of silence here a recent update, photographed january 2020
