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.
"In terms of age, couldn’t it just be genetic that he grew his mane later in life? Even Mohawk Northern Avoca is starting to fill out nicely this year and I don’t think he’s the youngest."
It do not think genes can influence mane to grow that way. I think it is either male has good genes regarding mane and then it is growing fast and is reaching impressive size, or worst and it is growing slower and is reaching less impresisve size. Southern Avoca are in age their mane definielly shouldn't grow anymore or are they? Perhaps one of them is not quite as old as we think he is.
