We all dream about and talk about 100 pounders – I think that very often the elephants that we take as 60 and 70 pounders when taken adjacent to great gene pools actually still have the potential , we all know about and are fascinated by the kruger tuskers and that incredible gene pool , likewise northern mozambique and southern Tanzania ,

Heres an extract of an email I received yesterday – a roadkill in kenya - what a shame but we know he passed on those incredible genes !! who knows who is reading the internet so I have deleted exact locations though I am sure it will soon be public knowledge -

“A week ago a big elephant bull was very sadly hit by a truck on the xxx road between xxx and xxx. Even sadder is that another of xxx's 100 pounders have gone!!! See attached photos. The tusks weighed 110 and 107lbs (50 and 48.7kg). That is now the 5th 100 pounder weighed and seen this year in xxx, that I know about. At least the gene pool is still strong”
