Caracal Sighting

While traveling in Addo I spotted this caracal in this stalking position. I quickly stopped my car a and took this pic.
(Mel this sighting was in “Caracal Valley” )
I kept my camera focused on her hoping for a pounce and kill but that never happened.




Instead she relaxed and moved to briefly pause in this shadow




She then quickly moved on and disappeared into the thick Addo bush
