Little Book of Meerkats - Hardcover

Meerkats are one of the world's most remarkable and fascinating little furry creatures. They may only be 30 centimetres tall, but their family units and social interaction has been the subject of serious study for nearly 20 years. Meerkats are the first non-human mammals to be seen actively teaching their young, and they could certainly teach us a thing or two about bringing up ours! In recent times Meerkats have become extremely popular and, even though they live in the Kalahari desert, have been popping up all around us on adverts, on t-shirts, on mugs, and on television. The growing interest in Meerkats and how they live has been greatly enhanced by the television series Meerkat Manor. This extremely popular docu-soap follows The Whiskers Family in their everyday dramas of sibling rivalries, power struggles and neighbourhood squabbles. Totally addictive and often heart rending, you get to know each Meerkat intimately and will become hopelessly attached to them all.
