Is that a fresh wound on his hip? Hard to tell if when I zoom in on the photo, if it is a fresh wound or an older scar. It appears that it may be fresh, if so we might be getting some answers to the mystery of what happened to Hercules. Especially if he is with the Skorros.

It doesn't look fresh to me at all. In most recent encounter with Nharhu males from 3 months ago or so larger Mbiri is said to get a bit injury to his back leg so it might be from that encounter.

He has this injury much earlier of that encounter

It seems to be most likely option althrought Mapoza most likely mated with Monwana females as well.

There seems to be some new male lions knocking around our traverse. Exciting, but we hope that the Maseke males cubs manage to stay a safe distance from them to help ensure their survival to adulthood.

Xikukutsus are littermates. None is older than the other.

I know. 

I've copied what the photographer says on his post
