Tusks are elongated, continuously growing front teeth, usually but not always in pairs, that protrude well beyond the mouth of certain mammal species. They are most commonly canines, as with warthogs, pig, and walruses, or, in the case of elephants, elongated incisors. In most tusked species both the males and the females have tusks although the males are larger. Tusks are generally curved, though the narwhal's sole tusk is straight and has a helical structure. In the elephant, the tusks were originally second incisors. Continuous growth is enabled by formative tissues in the apical openings of the roots of the teeth.
Tusks have a variety of uses depending on the animal. Social displays of dominance, particularly among males, are common, as is their use in defence against attackers. Elephants don't use them as digging and boring tools. Walruses use them to grip on ice and to haul out on ice. The presence of tusks in only the male narwhals suggests that for these whales it is a secondary sex characteristic.

Plot: Her first few years of life are much the same as any other infant; when she wasn't stuffing her face with lizard meat or playing push the boulder with her big sister, Cavegirl was picking the fleas from her Mother's beard. But by the time she was 11, Cavegirl realised she was different. Much to the anger of the tribe elders, it was obvious for all to see she was leaps ahead of her peers in the evolutionary scale. Cavegirl is quicker, wittier, stronger and much, much brighter and she knows it. As far as the resentful elders are concerned, little girls are supposed to cook the meat, not invent brilliant new ways to catch it.

The clock is ticking as a series of chess pieces fall into place before the big bang that sets the stage in this high caliber hyperbole of modern day political conspiracy and corruption.
