The serval has a long tail, which can be up to about 12 to 14 inches (30 to 35 cm) in length. This tail helps with balance and communication, especially when the serval is hunting or navigating through its habitat. Its distinctive pattern of spots and stripes also aids in camouflage.

The offspring of two short-tailed cats have 25 percent chance of having no tail a 25 percent chance of having a long tail and a 50 percent chance of having a short tail Based on this information wh?

The reason is because short tail cats have both genes of a no tail cat and a genes of a long tail cat. Lets say that a long tail gene is called gene A, and a no tail gene is called gene B. if both cats have short tails that means both cats have both genes A and B equally. so there is a 50-50 chance that each cat gives either gene to the baby This means the possible combinations are that one cat gives the baby an A and the other a B, remember that this possibility comes up twice since it doesn't matter which cat gives the A or the B. The other possibilities are that both cats give the kitten an A, or both cats give the kitten a B. That leaves AB(short tail), BA(short tail), AA(long tail), BB(no tail) so 25% for no tail, 25% for long tail, and 50% for short tail.
