| Range expansion: Servals spotted in the Kalahari | |
| 2019 Cat News (69): 9-11 | |
Servals _Leptailurus serval_ have a widespread distribution across sub-Saharan Africa with two large gaps: one in the tropical forest block of central Africa and one in the arid western block of southern Africa. We present new camera trap records of servals that fall within a large portion of the latter gap, including records from Khutse Game Reserve and Ghanzi that are more than 100 km outside the known range of the serval and may suggest a Kalahari-wide distribution. |
