RE: Avoca male lions - Potato - 11-06-2022

It would benefit Mohawk and Darkmane so, so, so much to team upDM probably has TB same as Blondie had or other health issue. He for years already had problem to pick up proper mass. For those saying he looked good recently just compare how his weigh looked like in comparison to Talamati young males, it wasn't even close even through DM was at least as tall as they are. I think regardless if he will have proper food sources or not in form of Talamatis, or if he would team with Mohawk or not, DM is on downfall. He will probably reunite with Talamati pride soon and will hold on for some time, but on the long run he can not win with TB.

Years? Until start of 2022 when he went nomadic he was in excellent and bulky condition..
But yes, he prob has some health issues lately.

Agreed. DM was in excellent condition this time last year. He didn’t start having weight issues until he went nomadic earlier this year. Hopefully whatever is going on is not TB and is mostly due to lack of a meal. But you never know. When talking about Blondie one of guides on WE said about half the lions in Kruger are infected with TB but only a small percentage will develop an illness from it and die. This is likely due to them dying from something else before the infection can began to take its toll.
Anyway, DM has been here before and bounced back. Looking malnourished and perhaps dealing with illness. Hopefully he’ll be looking much better in a few days.

DM looks great from the front. His mane looks good but he I can tell he’s skin and bones.

My boy DM is not looking bad, however, a good meal may help to start getting back in shape as he was before going nomadic.
