I think this is the first sighting of Scar in peak condition since the video of the Mbiris on Manyeleti late last year. Soon after Shaka was badly injured and throughout the last months, Scar also showed up with injuries and they were always seen only in ok to good condition, never in top form like we were used to, but here I think Scar has his bulkiness again:

Let's hope his brother shows up in top shape again too, I remember a photo of him where he might have been in top shape but he was lying down so it's hard to judge. Not sure if that thing on his belly is affecting him somehow but hopefully he recovers all his mighty. They are only 10, so just now entering old age, they should be able to maintain a condition close to their prime as long as they are healthy.

If these Mbiris can hold for at least 2 more years they'll reach 9 years as dominant males, their Birmingham cubs will be independent and close to adulthood, and they'll leave a massive legacy behind, with many offspring on the Mayambula, Skorro and Birmingham prides.
