I wouldn't call it "showing dominance" at all. Recently he did that, but on that video from August he just kindly greeted DM without any agression what so ever.

I never tracked Wild earth safari too much, but I heard on one of it that guide saying that DM is doing most mating on Nkuchuma females which was a bit suprising to me as he in fact even back then was seen much less in Djuma than other 2 Avocas. As far as I remember he was also the first one of the Avocas seen mating with Nkuchumas.

I do not think preferences of dominant males as to which pride he prefers to hang with have to do much if anythink with order of dominance within the coalition.

He prefered Talamatis from the very begining, also before he got his injury. There wasn't much to compete for between Avocas since they sired their first generation untill now when younger Nkuchumas started to coming back in oestrus so we did not yet see how DM's injury affect his fighting abilitiesalthrough in recent updates his leg looked fine. We will most likely see unless DM decide to just turn back and return to TAlamatis. Reply
