The head of this strikingly unusual small wildcat (19-28 lb) is disproportionate in comparison to its tall ears, elongated neck, lean body, and relatively long slim legs. Pale yellow coat marked with solid black spots along the sides, and bars on neck and shoulders distinguish it. Servals are adapted for hunting prey in African tall grass, and hunt chiefly large rodents for food or birds, small ungulates, reptiles, fish and insects when rodents are scarce.
