Caracal Cat
Price : 3500 USD
Caracals have short, reddish-brown fur on their back and
flanks, which is set off by the white fur on the chin, throat and
belly. Most notably, long tufts of black fur top the caracal’s
ears, which are long and slender. There are many theories
about the function of the ear tufts. The tufts may help keep
flies out of the cat’s face or help to camouflage the caracal in
tall grass by breaking up the outline of the cat’s head. However,
the most widely accepted theory is that the cat twitches its
ear tufts as a way to communicate with fellow caracals.
Although mainly terrestrial, they are excellent jumpers and
climbers. Caracals are the fastest felids of their size. They are
supremely acrobatic and can leap agilely 3m into the air to
bring down prey, such as guinea fowl, on the wing. Caracal’s
hunting style is very distinctive, using both paws independently
of each other, catching multiple birds at once, such as
catching multiple birds from the air. Like the rest of the small
cats, caracals may purr when content and make a variety of
other meows, growls, and hisses to express their mood.
