I'm wondering g as well. Smudge has some nice, big, dark elbow tufts going in. He's turning into a specimen for sure.
Yes, he is indeed, they all seem to be filling out, and recovering from whatever ails them, really well, recently, but he is a stud for sure.

But the sightings they have say only saw 2 males at one occasion, and 3 males at another.
Ah, ok, that makes more sense. Thank you, my friend!

Very touchy, he is. Why does it sound like someone is whistling at him?

Nevermind, I believe you are correct. I had to put my headphones on, and turn them up, and I believe the blowing sound I heard is someone moving in the truck.

@boa._.viagem on IG recently uploaded some quality footage on the Nkuhlus including #4. Unfortunately i came to the conclusion this was during January, before they've lost their manes and when Smudge (#1) has some bruises all over his face
#1 in the back, #6 and #5 while #3 scratches himself a bit

the day prior, the handsome young Nkuhlu #4, likely forever young.

The Gijimas seemed to be quite agitated around Lion Sands in a tourists stories, who shared the stories around the same time the picture above was posted by other tourist.
Seems like both coalitions were at Kirkman's just few hours later, perhaps we can get an update on a likely commotion or just some coincidences.

Nkuhlu males #3 and #6 on a buffalo kill in Tengile.
This are the thinner 2 out of the 5 often seen brothers, while the other 3 seem to be the core and strongest males in the coalition
