A Lincolnshire wildlife park will be the new home for two carcacals kept in a private home.
Wishing to keep wild cats doesn't make it a good idea. Sounds like the specially created habitat will provide a much better option for the caracals.
And re the serval with a broken leg - it was a frantic animal up a tree, apparently after dark, with cocaine in its system. Catch pole may not have been the best option. But a broken leg is not the most horrible outcome. What if the serval had leapt down and run into the road, then hit by car - doesn't bear thinking of.

The animals were confiscated in Holland where they were being kept illegally, the sanctuary says.
