Description
The serval (Leptailurus serval), also known as the tierboskat, is a wild cat found in Africa. It is the sole member of the genus Leptailurus and was first described by German naturalist Johann Christian Daniel von Schreber in 1776. Eighteen subspecies are recognised. The serval is a slender, medium-sized cat that stands 54–62 cm (21–24 in) at the shoulder and weighs 9–18 kg (20–40 lb). It is characterised by a small head, large ears, a golden-yellow to buff coat spotted and striped with black, and a short, black-tipped tail. The serval has the longest legs of any cat relative to its body size.

Un charmant gros chat... mais il ne faut surement pas s'y fier! Belle image, Mo!
Tu as raison dans ton commentaire, c'est probablement une coulemelle; j'ai ai vu (et mangé!) souvent quand je vivais dans les Pyrénées, elles poussaient surtout dans les prés. Mais avec les champignons, quand ou n'est pas sûr de soi, il vaut mieux s'abstenir!
