Where: BestZoo Best, The Netherlands
The zoo has quite a few Servals, and I'm trying to learn how to tell them apart... It's easy when they're sitting still, but not when they're all moving around
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.
