Serval
The serval is a slender cat with a long neck, small head, and large,
slightly cupped ears. The adult is 80 to 100 centimetres (32 to 40
inches) long, the tail accounting for an additional 20–30 cm. It stands
about 50 cm at the shoulder and weighs about 15 kilograms (33 pounds).
The coat is typically long and whitish on the underparts and yellowish
to reddish brown above, liberally marked with blck spotand stripes. These bold markings are replaced by smaller spots or
specks on some individuals, which are known as servaline cats and were
once considered a distinct species (felis brachyura servalina). All-black individuals are found in some populations, especially those from the high country of Kenya.
