Definitely Batman. I like the photograph of the caracal better. She/he looks so much more 'regal'. Beautiful animal. Hi Michael :-)

Specialists now believe it is closely related to the serval and golden cat, as mentioned above in the post. But you are absolutely right, they do look VERY similar both in shape, size and have the same kind of habits! Take care, Mike Hi there, thanks for the comment! :)

And just like a caracal, the lynx is extremely shy and very few people ever get to see more than its tracks. I assume they are extremely closely related?
