Overview
- Two of the three African servals that got out on Nov. 5 were recovered safely in November.
- The center did not disclose where the vehicle strike occurred after the cat’s last reported sighting near Berks County Memorial Gardens.
- Search efforts spanned several communities with traps and cameras after the cat’s tracking collar fell off, and residents were urged not to chase sightings.
- Staff thanked the public for more than 100 sighting reports and for the dozens of volunteers who joined organized searches.
- The servals were older animals retained from earlier cat-rescue work and were not considered dangerous, and owning servals in Pennsylvania requires a special permit.
