Mohawk is looking really impressive

Blondie looks great to be honest, his front legs were never the problem and he'll lose the limp pretty quick. He's putting on muscle finally so I think he has turned the corner on whatever issue he had before. This is a bad omen for the Bboys.

WHOAAA! Mohawk has a quite nice mane, already much developed as the other two Avoca males. Definitely, the testosterone of this specimen is on the top


RE: Avoca male lions - RookiePundit - 07-17-2021

Yeah, I almost mistook him for Dark Mane with that mane, but the eyes will always give him away.

Im starting to notice that all five Avocas really put in the effort to be dominant male lions.  All of them expanded their territory this year, and none of them had any size or numbers advantage. I think this is something people often overlook.

True that. I think the most impressive thing about them is that both Southern and Northern Avocas each control two prides and this was before they started expanding their respective territories. Hopefully they won't spread themselves too thin.

We do not know actually what kind of competition did Southern Avocas had if any for their prides.
