Caracal

Felis caracal

Description:

Amazing cat, very strong and can jump very high. Not sure if it's a lynx.

Habitat:

San Diego Zoo Safari Park

Notes:

It would be helpful if someone could verify my spotting, I saw this a year or two ago so I don't remember! :D

This is a caracal. They make great house pets but are a menace to small stock farmers
