By now most all know of the original ivories being used belong to elephant’s teeth and tusks or the woolly mammoth’s teeth and tusks, but what about some of the other natural forms of ivory? One of the first on the list of natural ivory suppliers of yesterday and today is the Walrus’s tusks and teeth. The Pacific Walrus is able to grow their tusks to the average size in length of around 5-cm. The tusks of a Walrus are elongated and the teeth are irregularly round in shape. The other very popular ivory giving animal of today and yesterday is the Helmeted Hornbill.
