Caracal (Felis caracal)

They are a nocturnal species and seldom seen except on night drives.

Like most cats, they are good climbers.

When seen, it is usually only one as they are a solitary species. If you are lucky enough, you might see a female with her young.

 Caracals are found throughout South Africa in all kind of habitats except forest regions
