Description
Meerkat taken at Toronga Park Zoo in Sydney.

Meerkats are native to southern Africa and can be found in the Kalahari Desert. They have adapted to living in very harsh conditions and climate, with little water, limited food and many predators. They have ears that can close in the event of a sand storm and dark patches around their eyes lessen the desert glare like sunglasses.
