Elephant or warthog, e.g. (6)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

tusker

(Other definitions for tusker that I've seen before include "Animal with long teeth like elephant or walrus" , "E.g. an elephant" , "Elephant perhaps" , "Animal with long teeth like elephant or wild boar" , "origin for Merchant Ivory?" .)

I've seen this clue in The New York Times.
