Saw these guys while on a boat tour. They were minding theier own business, eating and such. Until a rival troupe showed up on the opposite side of the river. Which is why some of them are showing aggression. We could see I think 10 but there may have been more that we just couldnt see.

Pretty sure this guy is the Alpha

Thank you for commenting.

I think the first guy might have "resting mean face" :-P Our guide thinks he is the alpha male because of all the scars on his face. Likely hes been in many territory disputes, and a lot of fights.
