Big Ivory by John Banovich

 

"Emerging from the dust this old bull elephant has seen the best and the worst that Africa has to offer. Today it is difficult to find elephants with such an impressive set of tusks. Hunting and illegal poaching has contributed to the decline in tusk size over the years. If an elephant has the right genes and has been lucky enough not to break them and avoid a poacher's chase, he then has a chance to support the ultimate trophy - Big Ivory." - John Banovich.
