5 Interesting Facts About Servals!

Servals have the highest hunting success rate of any wild cat - they catch prey on over 50% of their attempts, far outperforming lions (25%) and leopards (38%), using those enormous ears to locate prey by sound alone.
Those extraordinary ears can rotate independently to pinpoint sounds with remarkable precision - a serval can hear a mouse moving underground and strike through the soil at exactly the right spot.
They can leap up to 3.6 metres vertically - using their extremely long hind legs to spring upward and bat birds out of the air mid-flight, which is their speciality hunting technique.
The domestic Savannah cat was created by crossing a serval with a domestic cat - first-generation hybrids can be as large as a medium-sized dog and retain many of the serval's wild characteristics.
Servals are primarily solitary hunters active at dawn and dusk - they cover large territories of up to 30 square kilometres, marking boundaries with urine spraying and cheek rubbing on vegetation.
