Morning,

just wondering if i lost my marbles, or has anyone else has seen this ,
a caracal (rooikat) running around the routes in majik....saw it on sunday. was a bit smaller then described on the net.maybe a youngster...

I have also seen one. At the top of the black route, just before the 90 degree left next to the electric fence. The one I spotted was rather large though, not a youngster....

Have also seen it.
About 3 months ago, at dusk.
Running quite casually in the corridor between the vineyards and MF, there where the fence was recently put up.

I've seen it. Seen some Deer at the top as well. Last one time I've seen a deer was a little bokkie at the CWC track. Think it might have been a grysbokkie, but can be mistaken.

I have seen it (or one) at Meerendal.... going down the hill just before the "3 choices split".  Was running for about 10 seconds infront of me on the singletrack...........  Guess even animals love singletrack?

We reguarly spot some up in Paarlberg while riding around there.
And as soon as they see you - they run away !!!

That is the weirdest thing.
I also thought that I saw a Rooikat in Majik the other day but it luckily just ended up being one of these.


Does anyone know what it could be as it kept licking its lips when I rode past.

Cool shot of the cat. We have seen them in Hillcrest. Conters and Meerendal. A mate who is a vet said that a single cats  home range could extend across all of the local trails in Durbanville.

I was wondering whether it`s a lone ranger or there`s more than one.

We are so lucky in SA to be able to ride trails with such beautiful animals & nature side by side.
