The Serval Cat also known as the tierboskat, is a wild feline found 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 slim, medium-sized feline 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 psyche, large ears, a golden-yellow to buff hair spotted and striped with pitch-black, and a short, black-tipped posterior. The serval has the longest legs of any feline relative to its form size .

Active in the day as well as at night, servals tend to be solitary with minimal social interaction. Both sexes establish highly overlapping residence ranges of 10 to 32 km2( 4-12 sq mi ), and mark them with feces and saliva. Servals are carnivores- they prey on rodents( especially vlei rats ), small-time birds, frogs, insects, and reptiles. The serval utilizes its sense of hearing to situate the prey; 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 little bit on the cervix or the honcho. Mating takes residence at different times of its first year in different parts of their assortment, but commonly once or twice a year in an area. After a gestational period of two to three months, a offspring of one to four is digest. Weaning occurs at one month, and kittens begin hunting on their own at six months. The teenagers leave their father at 12 months .

The serval wishes areas with embrace such as reeds and towering grass and close proximity to water torsoes, such as wetlands and savannah. It is rare in northern Africa and the Sahel, but pervasive in southern Africa. The International Union for the Conservation of Nature and Natural Resources( IUCN) classifies the serval as least concern. It occurs in protected areas across its range, and hunting of servals is either proscribed or regulated in several countries .
