The Serval Cat also known as the tierboskat, is a wild cat may be in Africa. It is the sole member of the genus Leptailurus and was firstly is a description of German naturalist Johann Christian Daniel von Schreber in 1776. Eighteen subspecies are recognised. The serval is a slender, medium-sized cat that stands 54-62 cm( 21-24 in) at the shoulder and weighs 9-18 kg( 20-40 lb ). It is characterised by a small foreman, large ears, a golden-yellow to buff coating spotted and striped with pitch-black, and a short, black-tipped tail. The serval has the longest legs of any cat relative to its form sizing .

Active in the working day as well as at night, servals tend to be solitary with minimal social interaction. Both sexes prove highly overlapping home ranges of 10 to 32 km2( 4-12 sq mi ), and mark them with feces and saliva. Servals are carnivores- they prey on rodents( specially vlei rats ), small birds, frogs, insects, and reptiles. The serval uses its sense of hearing to situate the target; to kill tiny prey, it leaps over 2 m( 6 ft 7 in) above the floor to land on the prey on its forefeet, and finally kills it with a bite on the cervix or the foreman. Mating takes neighbourhood at different times of its first year in different parts of their scope, but often once or twice a year in an area. After a gestational period of two to three months, a litter of one to four is carry. Weaning occurs at one month, and kittens begin hunting on their own at six months. The teenagers leave their mom at 12 months .

The serval opts areas with encompas such as reeds and tall grasses and close proximity to water figures, such as wetlands and savannahs. It is rare in northern Africa and the Sahel, but widespread in south Africa. The International Union for the Conservation of Nature and Natural Resources( IUCN) classifies the serval as least anxiety. It occurs in protection areas across its range, and chase of servals is either prohibited or regulated in several countries .
