My love for those 2-feet tall animals!

I may have to recycle one post from my other blog. I was thinking what to update here and after a few minutes of contemplating, I decided to why not post about my love for these two-feet tall animals otherwise known as the meerkats.

 

Meerkat Manor

Ever wondered what kind of animal is Timon
from the Lion King? Really, it never bothered me before I stumbed upon
a nature documentary with a mixture of drama, aired on Animal Planet.
It told a story about a group of meerkats living and trying to survive
in a harsh Kalahari desert.

Meerkat Manor is a British television program and is a field study for the Kalahari Meerkat Project.
They delve on the life of meerkats and their cooperative nature.
Meerkats deal on family issues, loyalty, survival, politics, and more.
Out of a dozen families of meerkats in the desert, one group was being
studied, and they are called the
Whiskers family. Flower, the female protagonist of the story, is the leader of the pack. She is joined by her male partner, the brave Zaphod.

As the story unfolds, the Whiskers go on with their journey along with
other rival meerkats such as the Commandoes and the Lazulis. Not only
these meerkats face competition, but they also have to learn to survive
against the other residents of the desert.

Now... you might ask why I am getting my
hands full over a two-feet tall animal? Well, its because I just
watched the season 2 of the show a month ago. Animal Planet aired a
6-hour marathon of the series and now, its currently airing the 3rd season of the show. If you guys want to see for yourselves, then tune in every Wednesdays, on Animal Planet at 8PM. You must be subscribed to the Asian Animal Planet for you to view this.
