African Caracal Cat | Facts | Rare sighting

 




African Caracal Cat and some facts about it.

Here we have an amazing sighting of a caracal, now what's really special about spotting this one out and about is that they're typically nocturnal and that's why they're so secretive and very hard to spot.

So the average size of a caracal is about a meter in length and this one's a fairly young one. 

Can hear all the birds are really going insane that's what they typically prey on they eat small mammals birds and also rodents and because of the caracal small size they actually do become prey themselves so the hunter in this case does become the hunted lions leopards will easily take down a caracal so they're always very shy. 

Two interesting facts, you notice the tufts on the ears they are very distinct and another really interesting thing to notice is that they have the same color as lions so they have that really tawny orange color which fits well into this habitat here in tsavo. 

The yellow neck spur fowls you can hear them that's the bird which is the loudest there on the left it's just been following this cat around, very interesting interaction a very special sighting indeed.

These are some of the wildlife we may see on a Tsavo East Safari with Wild Kenya Safaris.
