Big, but not old enough.

For example, 2 Talamatis stil run away from territorial males, and they are ~1 year older on average.

Kambulas aswell, youngest of Kambulas is around the same age as oldest of NKs.

NKs still need quite some time to mature and gain confidence.

I truly believe, the moment Mohawk sees any one of those sons stop and take a stand, akin to what we saw with Mo when the Mejanes killed his last brother, he will turn right around and join him. Right now, he knows if he were to take such a stand his sons would not turn around, just like Mo's brother, likely, as you stated, due to their young age.

Hoping the altercation was recorded and will be released soon, for all we know Mohawk retreated instantly after learning of the presence from the NSW males. Would be interesting to see if Mohawk tried to share the kill, unrelated males have been known to share kills if there’s an abundance of food and don’t care much for fighting. I think his sons are still fairly young, but they’re blessed with a numbers advantage as well as a father who seemingly looks out for them. The Talamati males helped DM against the Imbali male last year and were around the same age the Nkuhuma males seem to be. The young Black Rock Boys in MM, only being 4 years of age, put a beating on 2 of the Salas males and then chased Jesse the Nomad, who was an absolute beast. Lion dynamics are constantly changing, look at the Southern Avocas, just some time ago they were believed to be the strongest coalition in SS and now one is injured and the other nowhere to be seen - the quicker these boys decide they want to help Mohawk the better, not only for themselves but for the Nkuhuma pride aswell, they can only stay on the run for so long before the BDMs catch them and takeover.
