The Caracal
The Caracalis distributed over Africa, the Middle East, Pakistan and India. Its chief habitat is dry steppes and semi deserts, but it also inhabits woodlands, savannah, and scrub forest It is best known for its spectacular skill at hunting birds, able to snatch a bird in flight, sometimes more than one at a time. It can jump and climb exceptionally well, which enables it to catch hyraxes better than probably any other carnivore. If no cover is available in which to conceal itself, a caracal may flatten itself against the ground and remain motionless, allowing its coat color to act as camouflage.
