"You should see the other guy!"

Don't want to be 'that guy' but a guide in South Africa told me that this is due to the sun drying out their skin until it cracks, not scars from fighting (like most people commonly think). The redness is their sweat which contains a moisturiser that they're using to try and make their back hurt less.

This is just a hippo with sunburn, sorry.

Looks more like he is well-worn to me.
