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.
Seeing the smaller-maned BDM walk, he doesn't look good. It seems he has mange in one of his front limbs, and the muscles of one of his hindlimbs seems to be atrophied ( guide talks about it ), he limps from one front limb ( IIRC the one with the mange ) and from the weird looking back limb.
I've no idea what caused him this as he doesn't seem to be injured, unless it was a recent hunting injury or the fights he had with Kambulas left permanent injuries, but now I don't even remember who got badly beaten in their hindlimbs, if it was this BDM or his brother, not only that but I believe we saw them at 100% after the clashes with Kambulas.
So perhaps his stress levels made him develop the Nkhulu/Tumbelas disease? I hope not, if he's lucky he just had a bad hunting recently and nothing is permanent.
