Here is the story directly von Wolfgang Schenk in the hunting newspaper "Hunters Path/Jagdzeit International"-publisher Jagdzeit AG/Melsungen Germany.
Wolfgang Schenk was round 10 years the chief taxidermy from Zimmermann/Nairobi and the man who skinned Ahmed.
He said,Ahmed died on a natural way.
Some "experts" was disappointed,that the tusks don't weight more (149+147 lbs !!) because Ahmed was a "small" elephant ,10 feet high and the ivory was looking bigger.
It was me allwoed from the chiefeditor to bring the article here from this legend.
Nearby" Hunters Path" is a really good magazine for the Globetrotter-hunters.
Hope you have joy with the pics like me.
