A feline predator native to the Kir and Shi'Al provinces on Vulcan.
Smaller than a le-matya the le-sahriy shares a common ancestry with the famous Vulcan desert predator, but has adapted to hunting smaller prey and living in the higher altitudes of the Llangon Mountains. Its appearance also suggests a possible evolutionary connection to the sehlat, a hypothesis supported by fossil records.
With a dense silvery- to golden-brown coat, tufted ears, long legs, short tail, and a ruff of fur that resembles a "beard", the le-sahriy has often been referred to as "oversized bobcat", although its size and ecological niche make it more similar to a Terran mountain lion.
While certainly capable of presenting a threat to even an adult Vulcan, the highly intelligent feline tends to stay clear of bipedal species whenever possible.
