Scars are a part of life

Jordan's facial wounds have healed up nicely, but I'm betting the hair won't every quite grow back in perfectly and he will bear the scars. He has a matching one on the other side.
It does leave me wondering what the other fella looks like!
Thank you for the awesome comments and questions on my photos.
Ooh Jordan - you do get into some scraps in being the No 1 . Battle Scars or not he is still a handsome fellow !!

Hard to stay on top once you get there. Great closeup.

He has had to work for that top spot. Looks like he doesn’t miss much in the community.
August 20th, 2019  
oh dear! He is still adorable
August 20th, 2019  
Bless! He’s still gorgeous though.

It gives his face character.

So close to the eye! Character building as the army would say!

I guess Jordan will have more scars to keep his place....What a serious capture this one is, he is so serious after the altercations.

Climbing to the top and staying there isn't easy, but he proudly made it.

Adorable!

Very nice I wanted to ask you do they bite very often?:)

Great capture.

@stevepam good question :) most fighting is more asserting dominance. One backing down is a better outcome than getting into a situation where true injury is risked.
However, sometimes there are indeed full altercations, especially when two big males are involved. Kind of think of it like this - if a big bloke towers over a smaller bloke, he will probably say oops sorry and leave. But if two big blokes really want the packet of chips, there's going to be a battle, and more chance of blood as they are more evenly matched.

Oh, the things he’s seen; “Heavy is the head that wears the crown.”

Poor thing....nice close up shot.
August 21st, 2019  
Very nice close up. I´m often surprised by how similar humans and animals are, fighting for the same things...
August 21st, 2019  
Beautiful ;)
August 21st, 2019  
So pleased he is healing nicely :)

It hard to believe these cute animals have battle scars. He looks like a tough guy.

Delightful shot of Jordan and his war wounds.
August 21st, 2019  
I was not aware that all males have to battle to stay on top!
August 21st, 2019  
Wonderful close up...fav
August 21st, 2019  
A super close up capture
August 21st, 2019  
Makes me think he is saying “ yeah, should have seen the other guy “ great shot
August 21st, 2019  
Poor Jordan, great capture!
August 21st, 2019  
@samae yep, he's just too cool for words this fella :)
August 21st, 2019  
The guy likes to have his story on his face. Adorable.
August 21st, 2019  
Poor little one!
August 21st, 2019  
@photographycrazy he is the alpha male of the colony, top of the heap and staying there mean being tough :)
August 21st, 2019  
Its a bit like Kangaroos or tassie devils - they seem battle scarred sometimes too !
