Marini--Big juvenile (female?)

  • PauDG by PauDG scientist, moderator

    We have here ( ACP000flwe ACP000flwg) a very good face view of this big juvenile.

    Looks like a female, but it is too small to be Sabirah, too big to be Kamala. It is not Eleanor either.... Shugi looks smaller also.

    We don't have good face view of Marini, but at least is a female also.

    AVJuv14 and AVJuv16 are also females, but AVJuv14 has a big bald, and AVJuv16 looks smaller...

    What do you think? Any other ideas?

    Thanks!

    I think Marini is a good guess here. All other prospective and known juveniles are smaller or do look different. Marini has the same nicely shaped brows and same mask with some lighter spots underneath the eyes and expecially also very big ears like our new youngster above. All seen in the Marini video ACP000g0jw. The right ear seems to be very big and standing out:

    Thanks a lot Heidi!

    Let's try to get a 3rd person involved.... More opinions? 😉

    I do not see anything that speaks against, but also no conclusive trait. Would be OK for me.
