African Wild Cat, Night Drive out of Satara Rest Camp, Kruger National Park, South Africa

When we first saw this cat, we thought that the guides were joking and that it was a "common" house cat. We later found out that it really was an African Wild Cat. The red-orange behind the ears is a key field mark.
