When: August 31, 2019

Where: Dierenpark Zie-ZOO Volkel, The Netherlands

She is such a little cutie

We watched this young girl from the moment she was 10 days old and she developed quickly - especially considering she had no siblings to play with. It was all her and her amazing willpower

Species: Serval

Latin name: Leptailurus Serval

Originiates from Africa.

Current status: Least Concern

Did you know:

…DNA studies have shown that the Serval is closely related to the African Wild Cat, and the Caracal.

…Its long legs make it able for the Serval to achieve a top speed of 80 km/h (50 mph).

…The white spots on the back of the Serval’s ears are called “ocelli” and are used to signal kittens when hunting.
