About this series
Africa is famous for its big game and big cats. But if it didn't also have small cats, this great continent would soon be awash in rodents and other small animals.
African wildcats are widespread and were domesticated thousands of years ago to become house cats. As part of an international lineage, they are described in another book in this series.
But what about that spotted cat with the super-long legs? And the one with crazy ears?
In this book, meet those two remarkable members of the cat family -- serval and caracal, respectively -- along with three other uniquely African cats.
Each chapter contains statistics, pictures, Red-List status and information about the cat's lifestyle and wild prey. There are also links to conservation sites online for you to investigate, as well as an extensive reference section in the back of the book.

Have you ever wondered where house cats come from? How bobcats and lynxes are related? Whether cheetahs and mountain lions are big cats? This eBook addresses those and other questions about four transcontinental feline lines -- big cats, the puma and its relatives, lynxes, and wildcats. It isn't a textbook or a research paper (although plenty of those are listed in the reference section!). It is an easy-to-read introduction to some of the world's most beautiful and mysterious predators. And it comes with images and links to useful and reliable online information about all of these endangered species -- as well as links to even more images and some videos, because cats are beautiful.

Did you know that Asia has many small cats, in addition to tigers, leopards, and other big cats? You'll find these little felines from coastal areas (jungle cats and leopard cats) all the way up into the snowy heights of Russia and Mongolia, where Manul, the Pallas cat, lives. Are they like house cats? How are they different? Read this book and learn all about these beautiful little cats today!

Andean cats, Pampas cats, guignas, Geoffroy's cats, margays, little tiger cats/oncillas, and (yes) ocelots. None of these New World cuties are as well known as the jaguar or puma, but each deserves recognition on its own terms as a beautiful group of little felines, occupying a special place in the wilds of Latin America (and, occasionally, in the US Southwest). Sit back and meet these small spotted members of the cat family now!
