I know we’ve had a fair bit to say about caracals in Cape Town of late, but this video takes the cake.
Better than the video of the caracal strolling around Lion’s Head – tick. Better than the photo of the caracal in Hout Bay – also tick, although that picture is incredible.
Filmed by Mike Eloff (@thelawry on Instagram), this video shows a caracal chowing a dassie on Table Mountain.
Yup, rare footage indeed.
This via Life Of Mike’s Facebook page:
I stumbled on the illusive Table Mountain Caracal this morning just as it made a dassie kill. After following it to it’s den, I placed a GoPro inside the little cave it calls home and managed to capture a mere glimpse of 55 minutes into the life of this beautiful and secretive creature.
We’re glad you did, Mike, because this is pretty epic:
Superb.
Now let’s leave this beautiful beast to munch in peace.
