The video of the fantastic tusker shows the pic I post a couple of weeks ago. Many forumites were doubtful and believed it was a photoshop enhanced picture.
CLIENT REFUSED A 100 POUNDER
That’s the proof that this elephant does exist in South Ligombe in October 2008, courtesy of PH Francois Lyonnet.

Our distinguished Shakari defended his competitor Arnaud when the pic was discussed (damn Brits, ever fair play!!Big Grin!!!) and he was fully right. Don’t mess with pros

I apologize if I am hijacking this thread but to all of those (clients, agents and Ph's) that continually refer to a "typical" selous male lion as one with very little mane, below is evidence to the contrary. One just has to let them age a bit before they shoot them Wink.

Disclaimer: The picture was taken from Arnaud Mermet's website www.arnaudmermet.com and their is no intention of any copywright infringments by reproducing it here. It was used to make a point.

Absolutely tremendous bull... had I been there hunting elephant I would have shot him first and decided what to mortgage later!


On the plains of hesitation lie the bleached bones of ten thousand, who on the dawn of victory lay down their weary heads resting, and there resting, died.

If you can talk with crowds and keep your virtue,
Or walk with Kings - nor lose the common touch...
Yours is the Earth and everything that's in it,
And - which is more - you'll be a Man, my son!
- Rudyard Kipling
