While driving on the savanna after sunset, we caught sight of the reflection of the headlights in this cat's eyes. The cat was well hidden in the tall grass, but I was able to get this shot using the light from the headlights to illuminate the cat. I am very surprised to see how much this cat looks like a domestic cat, but I guess this is not surprising as this species has donated more genetic material to the make up of the domestic cat than any other feline.
