Mother and Infant, match to Olive & Tassilo?

    Hard to see (better in the video), but I'm wondering if this could be Olive & Tassilo: ACP00072u1

    Both are also seen in the video before that: ACP00072u0. They are traveling fast, but there is a face view of the female. I cannot see much more than a gray beard. That at least would be consistent with Olive. The infant apparently wants something from her. It looks like nursing to me.

    The form of her swelling as shown by @ksigler is also consistent, so is basic body build (and behavior / interaction - although we cannot base so much on behavior, especially if it's only a few seconds). But, yes, I like that idea.

    Absolutely agree!! šŸ˜„

    letĀ“s see what the others say, but thatĀ“s a very good point @ksigler. ItĀ“s a pity that we cannot see this new femaleĀ“s left ear clearly...
