One of the largest tuskers in Kruger is a relaxed elephant known as Duke, named after the water hole at which he is frequently seen. Kruger rangers believe he may have the biggest tusks of any living elephant in the world. Besides his huge tusks, Duke can be identified by a square-shaped notch in his right ear. His home range is in the Lower Sabie and Crocodile Bridge areas but he has been seen as far north as Satara.
