Mal, the troop's "Alpha Male," was observed with significant wounds to his throat. This is likely the result of a battle with another adult male. The previous sightings of NTMs (Non-Troop males) makes it likely that an outside male, possibly from the neighboring troop at Muara Angke, made an attempt to dislodge Mal from Troop Bravo and replace him as the alpha. If that's the case, it did not succeed.
