Apparently I've exceeded single-post bandwidth limits again. Here's a pic of the big jumbo properly displayed:

If you look closely, you'll notice significant differences between this bull and the little guys I posted about earlier. For one thing, longer tusks (40-pound class, John told me). For another, look how thick the base of his trunk is. This elephant is over 14 feet tall, to give some scale. His trunk was close to 4 feet in diameter, I would estimate. An elephant that big could roll up a Toyota Land Cruiser like an empty can of Bud Lite.
