High flyer
Caracals are found in the scrublands of
Africa and the dry and rocky parts of Asia.
Agile and stealthy, caracals often leap
high up into the air to catch birds,
but also eat rodents and other small
creatures. Their amazing tufted ears
are very sensitive to sounds, and, as
with some other cats, also indicate
the cat’s mood and intentions.
Last of the lynxes
These rare, heavily spotted
Spanish lynxes are found mostly
in southwestern Spain. They
eat mainly rabbits but, like
the caracal and the serval,
sometimes catch low-flying birds.
