Marks on mango?

Some of my mangoes have these marks on them. Is it splitting or is it an insect I should be concerned with?

I'm not sure what it is...but it does not look like its splitting. Its possible an animal or insect marred it during its development stages...but that is just a guess? Is it on a lot of your mangoes or just a few?

Might also be from a branch scraping the immature fruit

It's a large 20-30 ft tree and the markings are on about 10% of fruit. Scraping sounds possible! The tree needs another pruning. I cut one open and it looks great inside, phew!

Great to hear, it has no affect on the inside...enjoy! Your mangoes are ripening very early!!

It seems they are ripening early here in Broward. I passed a house that had a mature mango tree in the front yard. The house wasn't even visible! Hundreds and hundreds of low hanging, ripe fruit. What a treat for the neighbors.
