Exactly. Most prides and even males avoid each other on a day to day basic. 

Quote:There were bites to some of their backs, and one female had a decent size cut to her back.

 Those tiny holes near the tail are hyenas harassing lions at a kill. And a cut is usually from a horn. Injuries from a lion fight would be the type of injuries young NK male recently received.

But he did stand up. And walk all the way in a near starvation state from Manyeleti to Djuma-- over 5km in one night. An experience we, living in a first world country can never understand. And then that same night, walked back in an even more emaciated and starved state.  But I saw those pics of him and he has no visible injuries.

A clear hole in the middle of the back on that same young light maned male with the bite to his tale. But you're welcome to see things however you wish, that's your perogative. Cheers man, happy New Year!
