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 president, large ears, a golden-yellow to buff coat spotted and striped with black, and a short, black-tipped tail.

Both sexes launch highly overlapping dwelling 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 ), tiny fowls, frogs, insects, and reptiles. The serval applies its sense of hearing to situate the prey; to kill small-time prey, it leaps over 2 m( 6 ft 7 in) above the sand to land on the prey on its forefeet, and finally kills it with a bite on the neck or the honcho. Mating takes place at different times of the year in different parts of their scope, but often once or twice a year in an area. After a gestational reporting period two to 3 month, a litter of one to four is suffer. Weaning occurs at one month, and kittens begin hunting on their own at six months. The juveniles leave their mom at 12 months .

The serval wishes areas with covering such as reeds and towering grass and close proximity to water mass, such as wetlands and savannah. It is rare in northern Africa and the Sahel, but widespread in southern Africa. The International Union for the Conservation of Nature and National resources( IUCN) classifies the serval as least regard. It occurs in protection areas across its assortment, and chase of servals is either proscribed or regulated in several countries .
