A carnivore, the caracal typically preys upon small mammals, birds and rodents. Studies in South Africa have reported that it preys on the Cape grysbok, the common duiker, sheep, goats, bush vlei rats, rock hyraxes, hare and birds.
It hunts at night for rodents and hares; rarely it may even attack a gazelle, a small antelope or a young ostrich. It is a picky eater.
