He should be fine, many big cats go through superficial wounds like this.
Gabbar, Prince of Pench, Naaka Kata, to name a few all had nasty rostrum wounds.
Big cats are resilient, these wounds come with the territory. He'll be all good in no time, he'll be scarred but this isn't a beauty pageant.
RE: The Birmingham Males - leocrest - 09-30-2016
good to know. i'm a fan of the bboys and finally starting to identify them by their scars and manes.
RE: The Birmingham Males - Pckts - 09-30-2016
Scars do usually make it easier to ID, especially with lions.

From Nkorho Rangers
29 September (morning)
- Went back to the Styx, Birmingham and cubs. While we were there another one of the males came to join and the males had a bit of a fight. Seems as though this one isn't liked very much seeing as he already has a huge wound on his face.

"One of the many things I love about the bush, is that you never know what to expect next. This morning after breakfast, we had the pleasant surprise of finding one of the Birminghams very close to the lodge. This is really a beautiful male!"

facebook shows those two pics as being from Oct. 1, but i think they are from mid Sept.

One of the Birmingham boys staring at a Elephant herd moving towards him. After a while the ellies chased him away but the male soon made his way back to his kill.
