Unique Way to Remember Your Elephant Trophy
Hi All,

As we look for new and different ways to remember a trophy elephant hunt, please take a look at the pictures below. The pictures below are of identical casts in aluminum of the front and rear of an elephant bull foot. The ele bull tracks in the pic are from a bull one of our hunters followed for 8 hours. It is absolutely identical and obviously unique as the contour and cracks in each foot are one of a kind! If anyone is interested in a cast like this email me at buzz@cmsafaris.com.

Cheers for now, Buzz

There you go Buzz, when someone gives you lemons make lemonade. Set up someone to do castings and replica tusks and just ship them as curios.

I kinda like it. Even for my desk, it's probably too big for a paperweight, but maybe a tray? After looking at the same tracks for hours and hours, at a minimum, it is a way to remember them.

How about a cast of your PH's backside? I've certainly spent a lot of time following that!

And what is needed to do this?

Frankly, my elephant feet are already bar stools, so I doubt this is an option for me now, but it is a neat idea if a nontrophy ele is in my future.
