Best Answer

"Sick tusk" is a condition usually described in elephants, although in theory you could use the same terminology for any animal that has tusks. Sick tusk describes a condition in which the tusk (which is generally an elongated upper or lower canine tooth) is diseased, usually due to infection in the pulp or fractures through the enamel into the dentin.
