Yes, she has although it isn't quite as wrinkled as Sita's. Manyara has been rolling in the muddy pond but I've never seen Sita and Zuri do that.

S S Satan 5 Aug 2010 I remember being up at 02:00 watching and waiting. It was great when they finally took the camera off the loop and we could see them both.
