If this is how it ended, seems KYMs need time.. Probably even up to a year to challenge any present day coalition in SS. Wonder how Selatis and Southern Avocas became formidable at such an early age. Have a feeling, they had gone through many tussles likes these before they turned formidable. In fights like these, every member of the coalition need to trust each other and stand up. Even if one loses courage and backs off or runs, its over. 

At least two of the KYMs here are a few months past 4, around the age when Selatis and S.Avocas made their mark.

There is no rule in this, some males mature sooner, some later.

Usually when they reach 4.5 - 5 yrs of age, most of them are ready.

Some mature earlier, and are ready to challenge territory at 4 - 4.5 yrs old, depends on many factors ( numbers, situation in the area etc.)

Selatis, when they killed mr T , where around 4.5 and some close to 5.

S.Avocas also where around 4.5 yrs old when they had scraps with Matshapiris and become territorial at around 5, when they pushed half year younger Tsalalas off.

These guy are still young, youngest will just turn 4, so they have time.

For example, 2 BDMs are 1 year older then them and are only now in recent months started to claim territitory.

This is not a race, many young males got killed because they challenge territorial males too soon.

Scraps like these is valuable experience in this ages pre territorial challenge. Reply
