The Servil

Now it may have been a few weeks or maybe even a month since this actually happened, but I remember it being spelled Servil.  Yet google, and most of the internet believes it is spelled Serval but the built in dictionary says having the a is wrong.  Maybe one is natural spelling, and the other is american or spanish.  I don't know. Spell it however you wish.

First and only time seeing this was about a month or so ago.  At first it looked like a very strange cat mixed with a cheetah on a diet.  Obviously none of those were right.  It is a Servil, which you can usually identify as having a small head but large ears.  Servils are of African origin, but not usually found in Northern Africa. It may look like a cheetah, but is obviously smaller. 

Servil's are omnivores eating snakes and other rodents.  This Servil obviously doesn't live in the wild, but does do a lot of running around. He was very calm and relaxed, and almost seemed like a just very large domestic cat.

The Servil, ladies and gentlemen.
