Caracals are the cutest and most beautiful among cats

It seems that we have found an insanely cute and the most beautiful species of the feline family. Meet the caracals, or, more precisely, the kittens of the caracals. In ancient Egypt, these beautiful creatures were even given some religious significance, their images can be seen in paintings and in the form of bronze sculptures, which, as the Egyptians believed, guarded the tombs of the Pharaohs.

Caracals live in Africa, the Middle East and the Indian subcontinent. Adults weigh no less than 18 kg, can reach speeds of up to 80 km per hour. Caracals are easily tamed, they are even sometimes kept as pets (although in some countries it is illegal).
