Interessante feiten over Meerkat

Meerkats use complex coordinated behaviour, which rivals that of chimps, baboons, dolphins and even humans.

Despite living in the desert, meerkats do not need extra water in their diets, as they get all the moisture they need from the insects and grubs they eat.

Meerkats have dark patches around their eyes to cut down glare from the sun and help them see far into the distance.
