The serval applies its sense of hearing to pinpoint the target; to kill tiny target, it leaps over 2 m( 6 ft 7 in) above the ground to land on the prey on its forefeet, and finally kills it with a bite on the cervix or the honcho. Mating takes place at different times of the 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 birth. Weaning occurs at one month, and kittens begin hunting on their own at six months. The teenagers leave their father at 12 months .

It is rare in northern Africa and the Sahel, but widespread in south Africa.
