But wow the Torchwood Young Male has such a big and beautiful dark mane and he is not even 5 yet. The BYM seems to have fully recovered, his tail is still swollen but he is walking as normally as he can and looks pretty healthy.

This is perfect example of difference in body type between Avoca/Giraffe gene (tall, lean lions by most part) and Bboys gene (tanky, muscular lions).

Pretty much, although Nhenha is much more athletic than his brothers. Something I've always noticed and you can actually see it here. Nhenha and pretty much all Bboys but mostly Nhenha always walks with his head down and if you seen him lying down, his head is always straight and never perched. If you look at how the Birmingham Young Male lies down compare to the TYM, he looks like his neck is long but Nhenha and the Torchwood young male have straight necks. I wonder if their necks are thicker and heavier. You can also see the difference between the Othawa Male and Nhenha. Othawa Male always walked with his head up and sat with head perched but Nhenha has his head straight whether standing or sitting. I think the Bboys have shorter shoulders  but thicker and more muscular necks and shoulders. It's weird but if you pay attention, you'll see it. Tinyo has pretty tall and muscular shoulders though.
