UNSPSC 10102016: Live caracals

The caracal is a medium-sized wild cat that lives in Africa, the Middle East, Persia and the Indian subcontinent. It reaches 40-50 centimetres at the shoulder, and weighs 8-18 kilograms. The coat is uniformly reddish tan or sandy, while the ventral parts are lighter with small reddish markings. The caracal is characterised by a robust build, long legs, a short face, long tufted ears, and long canine teeth

UNSPSC 10102016 Live caracals (Commodity) shows no meaningful state and local procurement activity aligned with its nominal scope. The three records tagged under this code reflect unrelated municipal administrative and facility-management work—a purchasing department relocation notice, equestrian center arena operations, and a zoo governance study—none of which involve procurement of live animals. The code does not surface relevant recent opportunities for vendors supplying live caracals to state and local buyers.

Geographic presence and issuing bodies cannot be meaningfully characterized from these records. Williamson County (Texas), the City of Pasadena (California), and the City of Waco (Texas) appear in the tagged opportunities, but their solicitations address facility operations and consulting services, not animal procurement. If your firm supplies live caracals or similar exotic animals to zoological institutions, wildlife parks, or sanctuaries, monitor this code periodically; activity may emerge as zoo acquisitions or animal-care contracts surface, but current posting patterns do not support active pursuit.
