The real big boy...sorry for pic...
Interestingly, one can identify the animals quite easily from their facial markings, which are always unique...sort of like the cheetah spots, nana!
Mg and I started a thread about that elsewhere along time ago..maybe we should resume here?

The big bulls seem to last for about a decade max in Kruger...an unique opportunity to follow them and their families...a-la wild dog pic studies etc.?

Ja, Lis...pretty sure those are all adult bulls?
Will ask the experts!
