Me: This is not a house cat, not a house cat, this is not a house cat
Little Caracal: *appeared on screen
Me : Damn it
he's called floppa
Human's have been keeping Caracal's as pets/work animals for 4-5 thousand years. It's all about handling from a young age and the animal being captive bred.
@@Ushio01 I need more lore I didn't know about their existence until a year ago really baffled how it is not more popular
@@Ushio01 It's also important to feed it properly and build an outdoors enclosure for it to exercise.
@@thecandlemaker1329 That's true for all pet's. So I thought it went without saying.
The fact that this was posted on floppa Friday where I live makes it all better
Too bad that tomorrow is going to be No Nut November.
But what about Bingus Monday? >:/

Yes I agree 😂❤❤❤❤
It's surprising how relatively unknown cats like caracal, serval or jaguarandi are, despite their huge commonality.
Just searched up Jaguarandi cats, not disappointed
floppa and sogga made them a little more popular
I only know about em because of wild kratts.
@@PilloTheStar👏YES👏 I’m not alone!

Lord Floppa avoids picking a fight with the honey badger. Lord Floppa is wise beyond his ears.
Go floppa!
Lord Floppa scared off the honey badger, so in Floppa lore the honey badger is scared of Lord Floppa
This comment is just gold.
If honey badger wanted Lord Floppa would be lunch.🧐
Wise words floppa
Another theory on their ear tufts (and the one I think makes the most sense) is that they can use them to accurately determine wind direction so they can hunt *downwind from their prey.
nah the ear tufts are just there to look cool
@@GrubbyWubby well I mean...you do have a point...
Nah the ear tufts are just there for the floppa meme
Theyre there to flop

I didn't know a fluffy springboard could be so adorable.
I love this rare cat... seen it only once in the wild in Kenya 🇰🇪
I call it Africa's lynx.
Have always wondered what a cross with a serval would produce... they do practically the same niche and are almost the same cat like lions and tigers
One of the best channels to watch when you're a classic 2000's Animal Planet millennial and you don't feel like paying over $100 for cable.
Lmfao true
Animal planet doesn’t even show wild or extinct animal documentaries anymore it’s like the house pet version of TLC
Exactly!! While im not a milennnial but animal planet played a huge role in my childhood. So glad youtube exists
Dude the feels
I miss the morning wake up show on animal planet that was just footage of nature in the morning, no talking or people just the sound of nature and the sunrise.
And Serval’s best friend has been covered.

Hey, Animalogic.
Awesome coverage of a beloved creature, yet again! As well, I'm very intrigued by who the composer for the video intro music might be. I'm an orchestrator and the score/backing track caught my ear! 💞
Audio Network is a website for music for TV, Ads, etc. I think many NatGeo shows uses track from there, for example. In the description, the "Glitz" one is indeed the intro music, and from searching (my prior comment here is deleted because of the link maybe), the composer is Ray Davies.
When i was a wee ladsie, I had a Caracal fascination, and would watch the episode of Wild Kratts featuring them constantly because caracals are cool.
When the floppa meme came out, I was naturally overjoyed, and leapt for joy.
Facts
Floppa is the best cat!
Agreed
@Philip Noah vouch
Floppa
There's no cat breed called floppa
also bingus rules too
These cats are stunning, and I can’t blame that one for not having a go at the honey badger…smart choice.🖤🇨🇦
Honey badgers are scary mofos.

What a wonderful thing you guys at Animalogic do! I've watched this video at least 10 times since it was released and i still enjoy it. You guys are the best.
No matter the species, kitties are always extra cute.
Even if They nom ur hand off?

Speaking of cats, I would like to see a feature on the cougar aka the mountain lion aka the puma aka the catamount aka the Largest of the Purring Cats.
Well, technically the mountain lion is a small cat, just not an unknown one.
I wouldn’t mind seeing that. Isn’t it the 2nd fastest cat in the world? Cuz after the cheetah, you go to the cougar, and then caracals/servals, snow leopard, and then leopard. I’d say lions, tigers, jags are overrated in terms of speed. But cougars not only have that but leaping ability is off the charts!
There a cougar or two in the mountains round my hometown
Yes I agree

Caracal cubs really are some of the cutest babies in the world.
The upbeat cheerful background music while the cat absolutely F's up that bird is priceless 😂
The "floppa" name really suits them.
King of the Flop is such a cute title 🥰
I very appreciate this episode!
Ive never heard it anywhere but i believe their ear tufts are also the way they are to hear other caracals meows. That their meows are special to be quiet yet loud to other caracals because they can pick it up with their ear tufts
I remember when I first learnt about these and I found it so funny that they're literally just Caracal Caracal.
Same with me, only it was Gorilla Gorilla
@@ack7 Really?

What a beautiful cat.
I can understand the appeal of owning this exotic animal, but I wouldn't dare attempt it, myself. It's just too wild and majestic to force into domestication. Also, I'm pretty sure one could kill me if it wanted to badly enough.
Honestly imo, they’re one of the most reasonable exotic cats to own, that or servals.
Fun fact: When Egyptians mentioned owning and worshiping cats, they were actually talking about caracals :)
It's no more likely to kill you than a medium sized dog.
You're rarely the one forcing them into domestication
People have kept Caracals and Servals as pets for centuries. They're not really more dangerous than a dog
@@sheepsky rubbish. They can be extremely dangerous. Pse don't comment on something you do not know.
The Caracal is Majestic! It is powerful and agile and has superior senses. But more importantly it is a very smart animal, smart enough not to F with a Honey Badger.
2:44 that is the cutest meow I've ever seen
I love how Caracals look!
Floppa*
They look like mini cougars with lynx-like ears 💙💙💙
@Certified rat analyser Caracals are the species of floppas
This is just some of the many examples of why Floppa is incredibly superior to Bingus.
Yas
Bingus= normal house cat
Floppa= superior hunter
To @squishyboi1179: Thank you Sir Squishy boi for providing A clear definition of these arcane terms!!!🐱
Thanks For making So much animal facts!
A beautiful cat. The kittens are super cute and have an adorable trill noise.
Must be badass if a honey badger is hightailing it out of there when one shows up! 😳
@Ceel I wouldn't say no chance. They're hard to kill of course but can be overpowered strength-wise.
@Ceel The Honey badger would be overpowered, they just have really tough skin so it's hard to get any food out of it.
@@swordfish1986 I don't think it could take on a HB.
@@Abdi-libaax There's one video where a caracal and a honey badger meet and the badger retreated. No fight though. Wild cats are not fun to mess with, most animal know this.

Great video animalogic!
caracals have been my favourite animal for years, so glad they're finally getting the recognition they deserve
I'm familiar with Caracals, but it was cool to see a video on them. They need more attention, for sure. As for the next cat for small cats unknown, how about covering the Asian Wildcat? One of the two cats that are thought to have inspired the Star Fox character Miyu. Some say she's a Lynx, but I've seen compelling evidence for her being an Asian Wildcat, plus the longer tail in official art suggests this one. I simply love felines, so learning more about the Asian Wildcat would be nice.
We have tigers
"They need more attention" looks like the internet gods heard your prayers in the shape of people making floppa memes and having them as pets
As a fellow caracal-lover (and as a fellow named Caracal!), I approve this video 😁
Pumba when he was younger 😊❤
Interesting even though the origin of the name is Turkish, almost nobody calls them like that in Turkey. Turkish people mostly call it step vaşağı (meaning steppe lynx, pronounced as step vashaa)
I've never heard the word "cal" or "kal" in Turkish. Am I missing something? I get the "kara" part.
Yeah, basicly noone calls them Karakulak.
Omg step lynx im stuck in the washing machine
in Kazak (Turkic family of languages) we call them karakal or karakulak and kara in our language means black, kulak is ear.
it's called karakulak, never heard of step vaşağı
It's been a while since I've watched one of your videos [yes, I'm ashamed of myself 😅] but I'm really glad you still include Danielle's AMAZING drawings! 👏
This Made My Day Better
LOL 😆 🤣 😂 😹 😆 The music in the background 🤣 😂 😆 😄 😅
Proud to know what caracals and rock hyraxes are from The Wild Thornberrys. They're both amazing animals. Thank you for featuring them so that more people can learn about them. :)
was *just* thinking about these and this came out on a day of horrible timing in every other way
Ergo: This video is perfect timing for me
Nice drawing the end!
So cute I love Caracals.
This channel blends creativity and education so perfect.
Caracal: Everybody do the flop!
A precious adorable beautiful cat!
crazy to finally see the flops in action
Love these funky little guys
Caracal supremacy

Thanks!
Lovely artwork, Danielle Dufault 💐 thanks for creating & sharing this
It's interesting how you mentioned their tufts are used for communication. I can understand that, because also think of how birds use tufts and crests as forms of communication.
Caracal: my dream cat
Great speedpaint at the end of the video
Honestly, I think Caracals are one of the most beautiful wild cats on Earth. I wonder what their temperament is, can they be tamed. If it wasn't for the ears, they'd look like miniature mountain lions.
They are the most popular wild cats to keep at home.
Much like house cats some are cool others are jerks, but a lot of people keep them around
Of all the wildcats, caracals are supposedly the easiest to tame.
Our favorite eastern european genocidal cat, gosha
Oppressor of Binguses, Evader of Taxes, Slayer of those who name him Hecker.
1:55-2:03 dude missed the *WHOLE* already dead bird lmao
The fact they made a floppa joke thumbnail.. i respect that
I'm so glad you're doing an entire series on small cats. ♥
Polypterids or Painted Dogs would be great.
This is amazing and I so Love Caracals
Love the music in this ine
Oh yes, I’ve been waiting for this 👏👏👏
Caracals have the coolest ears in the feline world! And yes, they do remind me of antenna, specifically, TV antenna.🐈📺
Amazing cat. We filmed one for our channel in a zoo. Such a stunning animal
I love the narrator.What fun
Floppa the comitter of war crimes
They look like small Cougars, I wonder how closely they are related . Mountain Lions are officially Small Cats despite being Leopard size.
This is a certified *hecker moment*
0:00 my favorite part
Just one more badass kitty!
bruh animals are so cute even when they tryna kill
Finally, a TH-camr that actually calls it a caracal.
i love how a meme is such actually pretty wild
My favourite cat. I handraised 5 kittens I rescued. Was heartbroken to say goodbye when I let them go to a wildlife sanctuary.
You know, I kinda liked the minimalist feel of the end-drawing when it was halfway done (around 6:16). It was an interesting look at what your style would look like if it were more cartooned and less realistic.
The Floppa Is A Meme And Also Rip To The Pass Floppa For Aging So Many Times Until It Died
Fun fact: When they hiss it doesn’t necessarily mean that they are angry, that is how they communicate
if they hiss with their ears up, then theyre being friendly
if they hiss with their ears down, youre annoying the caracal
I have been waiting for this video for a lonnngggg time
Such a cute kitty!! Awwwe
Love it
Good vid
That last clip looks like someone threw a dead bird over that caracl's head to get it to jump into the air. Lol
because it is, look around, it's not a wild environment
The live guineafowl it caught also was likely domestic with clipped wings. Wild ones can take off in an instant, but can only fly a short distance. (Caracals can still catch them though.) Still a nice showcase of the caracal.
i love caracals!! i would love to make a sanctuary for them one day :)
Quite wonderfully beastly!
I really enjoyed the sogga cameo
Trust me Danielle, if you come close to one of these whilst caged (we trap them for relocation away from livestock) 'floppy' is the absolute last impression you will have. More like a vicious, spitting agent if evil! That said a young Caracal once rubbed up against my leg when we encountered each other - very rare!
Sounds like a description of most feral cats. Then you raise one from kittenhood and they are not so bad.
Floopa
Honey badger was looking at that Caracal like "Do you really wanna end your day like this?"
How perfect is it that floppa’s closest species is sogga
Clearly, the majority of the cats in the film were in some sort of captive arrangement and were being fed live birds (guineafowl) with their flight ability disabled (the uniform trimming of flight feathers is obvious). In some clips, the live birds were clearly being thrown directly at the cats for them to kill. I feel like this needs some sort of explanation. If these cats were filmed as part of a wild release program, there might be some argument for introducing live prey......but to me, this footage was gratuitous in showing five instances of deliberately disabled birds being fed to the captive cats.
And the white rat didn't look exactly wild to me.
@@XSemperIdem5 Yeah.... bit of a giveaway.
Oh no, the horror !
A lot of "wilds" animal's footages are done this way nowadays...and/or olds films.
Maybe soon all we'll be able to watch will be 3d animated movies...
Who gives a shit lol
There used to be a lot or caracals in Kuwait, but unfortunately due to urbanization they loss their habitat and it’s been declared that they got extinct in Kuwait.
Fantastic video as always. Will you be kind enough to share with me the reference to the theory that Caracal ears can be used to mimic insects to lure the birds?
I absolutely love wild cats.. They’re all gorgeous, from the Lion to the Lynx
