Description When: May 16, 2017
Where: ZieZOO Volkel, The Netherlands
It's so strange seeing that this is a photo from May, and I feel like this baby Serval looks younger than he did back in April
Sure, the ears are bigger, he's differently grown into them, but that face is just adorable

Species: Serval

Latin name: Leptailurus Serval

Originiates from Africa.

Current status: Least Concern

 Did you know: 

…DNA studies have shown that the Serval is closely related to the African Wild Cat, and the Caracal.

…Its long legs make it able for the Serval to achieve a top speed of 80 km/h (50 mph).

…The white spots on the back of the Serval’s ears are called “ocelli” and are used to signal kittens when hunting.
