There is a world somewhere between reality and fiction. Although ignored by many, it is very real and so are those living in it. This forum is about the natural world. Here, wild animals will be heard and respected. The forum offers a glimpse into an unknown world as well as a room with a view on the present and the future. Anyone able to speak on behalf of those living in the emerald forest and the deep blue sea is invited to join.

The limp is becoming more noticeable.

He looks in great condition for his age, it looks like hip problem by the way he moves his leg, leg is fine, but this is expected at this stage, its like saying that 90 yrs old grandpa wont have hip problems...

As long as he can follow Othawas he will be fine..

Yea, Dark Mane might be the same height as Hairy Belly, but he is nowhere near the size and mass of him, HB was s monster in his prime.

As James Hendy said "and I think this fellow here is gonna be roughly same size". It could be overestimated, but even if it slightly is then still they are close in size.  No offence, but I presume guide know better than you guys Joking

That footage was 2 yrs ago, Dark Mane Avoca wasnt even 5 yrs old then, James Henry only speculate that he CAN be the size of HB when fully grown, he wasnt comparing them then.
