This small mammal, belonging to the mongoose family, is native to parts of South Africa, southwestern Angola, the Namib Desert in Namibia, and Botswana’s Kalahari Desert. “Mobs” or “gangs” of meerkats are made up of around 20 individual family members, but larger groups of “super families” of around 50 or more, are not uncommon. The life span of a meerkat is around six or seven years, although this doubles for animals in captivity. These amazing creatures have no excess “fat” stores and daily foraging is a necessity. A “sentry” or “guard” watches as the mob forage for food, and keeps an eye out for predators. This usually lasts an hour as the gang search for insects, lizards, snakes, scorpions, eggs, spiders, and small mammals. The sentry will “bark” or whistle loudly if danger is approaching, but when all is well, the meerkat on duty will make peeping sounds to indicate relative safety. Through various forms of media, these cute furry animals have grown in popularity over the years with the public. This book takes a look at the fascinating life of the meerkat, the history of the mammal and its natural habitat, as well as meerkat anatomy, populations, groups, and long-term survival.

Photographer Nigel Dennis spent two years in the Kalahari Gemsbok National Park, during which time he was afforded opportunities for photography which few others have enjoyed. The photographs provide insight into the private lives, behaviour and habits of these curious creatures, and capture them in many moods and in a wide variety of daily activities. It is accompanied by an informative and extremely readable text which documents the life of these animals in their desert habitat, examining their behaviour, social make-up and adaptation to an often hostile environment. Meerkats display almost human qualities, which make them the favourites of many wildlife watchers. This guide will stimulate and satisfy readers, allowing them to share in the world of one of Africa's most endearing animals.
