Holding the end of the trunk over the tip of a tusk and twisting the trunk back and forth. Observed only among elephants with tusks with tips slender enough to insert in a nostril.
V-Notch places her nostril over the end or her tusk appearing as if Nose-Picking, although we do not believe that this is its function. She is attentive. (Maasai Mara, Kenya)
