Description:
=== The scientific name for a meerkat is Suricata. Meerkats have an 8 inch tail to keep them balanced when standing up. When meerkats dig they can't close their ears to keep the dirt out. Meerkats actually create burrows in different places to hide in case a predator tries to get them. Meerkats live in small groups. In the groups some meerkats stay guard for hawks and other predators. If danger is present they will let out a high pitch scream to alert others. ===
