If the 100 pounder elephant had a "special" price tag to match, then I could well understand someone turning it down simply because of "price".

Trophy fees being determined by trophy size is the epitome of "cheque book" hunting, where skill doesn't play much of a part, just the size of the wallet. One reason I detest it so much.

I'm not saying that a "trophy fee = trophy size" was an issue here but it is one possible explanation.

If the ele photo posted is real it is a VERY nice elephant. The head of the bull also shows some appearance of old age.

The tusk looks very sharp and pointed though.
