Cute Meerkat – species of small predatory mammals from the mongoose family, widely known for their complex social structures and fascinating behavior. They inhabit the deserts and semi-deserts of southern Africa, particularly in the Kalahari and Namibia. Meerkats live in groups of 20-30 individuals and create intricate systems of underground burrows.

One of the most interesting aspects of their behavior is their group protection strategy. One or several meerkats stand on their hind legs, elevated on lookout hills or stones, to watch for predators such as eagles and jackals.

Interesting fact: Meerkats have immunity to the venom of many poisonous snakes and scorpions, allowing them to hunt such animals without risk to their lives. They are also known for their ability to use objects to obtain food, such as using stones to break eggs.
