Serval cat hunting

- Our guest and friend Claus Nielsen has taken this wonderful video of a Serval cat hunting.
The name Serval is derived from a Portuguese word meaning “wolf-deer. The serval’s sensitive hearing allows it to locate small mammals moving through the grass or underground, and to hunt its prey sometimes without seeing it until the final pounce. It also has the ability to leap vertically and catch prey such as birds, right out of the air. They do this by “clapping” with their front paws together and striking with a downward blow. Primary prey items for the Serval includes rodents, birds, reptiles, fish, frogs and insects. Servals have a hunting success rate of 50%. Video taken in Maasai Mara 2015
They have now successfully bred a hybrid of a domestic house cat with an African Serval and people are keeping them as pets. They are called Savannah Cats. Problem is cat owners think it's a cool idea at first to get one until they realise how wild the Savannah cat is. They are definitely not low maintenance like a regular domestic cat. They require a TON of attention and you need to safe proof your home because they jump extremely high and break everything. They need a large play area for outdoor time and cannot be left alone more than 4 hours a day. They are extremely intelligent, beautiful and super cool but are only good for a certain kind of owner. Look up some videos on RUclips about them. They are magnificent!!!
I’m considering getting a Savanna F1 or a smaller kind but I’m doing my research to make sure I’m capable of taking care of one.
@@rockbottomcycles4526 You should get a F4 for beginners. They are the smallest and have the least percentage of African Serval blood in them. Most of their blood percentage is a regular domesticated cat’s. You should get a F1 after a few years, they are really awesome animals but they n eed alot of space. Choose your breeder wisely too.
I own a savannah, I love her, they are very intelligent and playful. But they are easy to manage if you know what you are doing :)
Duh
@@rockbottomcycles4526I’ve raised three of them and they do take a lot of care if you want to do it right. You should feed them a raw meat mixture and they are full of energy, take a lot of time but they are the best pets ever. I would never have any other breed. Be prepared to spend at least $15,000 to $20,000 for an F 1 Savannah through and be careful who you buy from. Good luck! 💕
Stripes and spots ! ... What a splendid animal ! Thank you !
Looks like a mini cheetah
I like how the idiots in this comment section insult the cat for its failed hunt like really? The cat just got out foxed by illusive prey.
I see so many people online with pet serval and I noticed from their houses they all look wealthy. As with all felines they all have different personalities. I have 2 females cats (1 an Arabian Mau never leaves the bedroom) and my room mate has 2 males. They each are so so different. I love my Arabian Mau with her dots and stripes. She cuddles with me everyday and kneads against my tin cage with her head on my bicep. I love her so much.
So beautifull. Awesome cat.
Cat always tries puts rear leg precisely in the track of front leg

Hello, can I use a short clip (4 seconds) for my RUclips video? Thanks. Abbie
Esse gato tá com tanta fome que tá vendo até miragem.😂😂😂
This is what your Serval cat does to you when you're sleeping. Happy dreams kids.....
Kids wont watch this. They are dumb and afraid of blood. I started watching animal fights and hunts from 5-7 years old. Blood is nothing for me...
Preach
I watched some violent stuff as a kid.
@@user-sp9io5nn9n I also watched bloody documentaries at that age.
Beautiful Cat.

Freestyles rap battles happening good time right meow
I fell asleep waiting 😂
@ 4:11 NOTHING HAPPENS... you are welcome!
Can you believe that servals were once called tiger cats?
Had to watch it in 2x speed, still felt its too slow.
All good things are and should be wild and free
If you need a pet that takes five minutes to sneak up on an empty bush, this kitty is for you.
I bet you wouldn`t see a buffalo hiding in this bush. And you will not even notice a Wolf Standing beside you in the Woods. For sure this bush wasn`t empty, but the mouse just escaped.
savannah cats ftw
they cut out the chase? seriously? the best part?
Now there was a real slo-mo.
Please don't eat me!!
Serval cat I knew love to eat bun, so you're safe.
Wow
It hunts like a lion so I want them to meet face to face but not a fight
Serval is The most beautiful, skillful cat besides the tigar
leopard number one
All cats are unique in their own rights. Stop comparing.
Prank by Serval,, 🤣
