Meerkats - worldwide they are the absolute audience favorites of animal films. They live in the deserts and steppes of southern Africa, in a world of sand and stone. Over thousands of years, they have adapted perfectly to their hostile environment, feeding on anything that gets in front of their pointed snouts: lizards, scorpions, but above all beetles and other insects. But they are also on the menu of numerous predators, such as eagles and jackals - only a sophisticated system of different alarm calls ensures the survival of the family. In the desert, one thing counts above all: teamwork. And meerkats have perfected this.
