Tiny baby Meerkat in the Zoo

  • 6 hours ago
Meerkat babies start life deep underground in a birthing chamber lined with grasses.There are usually 3 to 4 in a litter, and they go by a few different names.

The most common name for them though, seems to be pups, probably because, even though meerkats have "kat" in their name, their social, playful behavior may seem more dog-like.


Although there may be 30 members of the meerkat colony, called a mob, generally only the Alpha male and female meerkats mate.
