  Hi @wightdragon

  Probably yes. Why don't you try to find out who they are, especially the juvenile in front of whom we get a good look at it's face?? 😃

  Happy hunting!

  To help a bit more - this is a female juvenile, still quite young. You can see her rounded brows, dark eye mask and light muzzle. We certainly did see her before and I just post some pictures of Kamala pointing to a small dent in the right brow that might help to identify her. You can also compare other features, like the right ear that is well seen here. So, do we think that this is Kamala?

  This is that cutie Kamala I agree - with her flattened nose area and right brow dent, ear shape the same.

  I also think that this is Kamala. She has this flat and broad nose and a very light muzzle.
