    Is the example you posted solid, or hollow?
    The line down his belly is what I was seeing that might indicate walrus tusk:

    don't know...but it carries that same off white color and shine...

    id the camel were tusk..the secondary dentine would be more pronounced ...and go up the legs and travel along the neck............ imo..
