| The name caracal Felis caracal is derived from a Turkish word `garah-gulak` or `black ear`. They were once tamed and trained for bird hunting in Iran and India. They were put into arenas containing a flock of pigeons, and wagers were made as to how many the cat would take down, hence the origination of the expression `to put a cat amongst the pigeons`. Apparently it is capable of leaping into the air and knocking down 10-12 birds at one time! |
