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. Foxi
