Ian,
We have a copy of Rikki Walkers book @ Sheffield, so I'll fax the
page you want - no elephant bones though!

Dear all,
Please can anyone help? I'm trying to identify a massive bone
which I
think may be an elephant ulna. Does anyone have any illustrations
of
an elephant ulna handy? I know that eventually I'll have to consult
ref material but I'm being pressured into making an ID now! (& the
bone cannot be moved at present) So far I've looked at Cornwall
1956.
If anyone has a copy of A Guide to Post -Cranial Bones of East
African
Animals (Mrs Walker's Bone Book) by Rikki Walker 1985 can they
let me
know - (ideally could they fax me the relevant ulna page!) and any
other suggestions of illustrations to consult would be welcome Thanks
in advance for any help Ian
