Answer and explanation;

The characteristics include;

  • Long and powerful legs - Its long and powerful legs allow it to catch birds in midair, a characteristic which is useful on savanna since the trees are isolated and hence do not provide the birds with many areas to shelter away from serval.
  • Acute hearing- They have acute hearing which allow them to track the movement of small animals underground. Savanna being a home for many burrowing animals, the ability of serval to track these animals is useful to them.
