The black ears, topped with long black tufts, are one of the Caracal’s distinguishing features. The other is its uniformly tawny-brown to brick-red coloured coat, which allows the Caracal to blend in perfectly with its environment. Caracals are common residents in the arid regions of the western part of Southern Africa. The Caracal is an agile and feisty hunter. The Caracal predominantly preys on medium-sized mammals and birds, although it is capable of taking much larger prey such as an adult springbuck or impala. The Caracal has an exceptional ability to hunt birds. It will stalk doves or sandgrouse as they come to drink, then leap high into the air catching a bird between its front paws. It is said that the Caracal is so fast that it may get two birds with one leap. A portrait of a Caracal is depicted on the common obverse. The words "South Africa" year "2004" form part of the silhouette design of tree branches and grass. ------------------------------------- TO RESERVE Call Randburg Coin Now (011) 789-2233 or (011) 789 -2234 Or email us by clicking on > This email address is being protected from spambots.
