These guys are really smart, They build little Mound huts and poke holes in the Mound so they can see if their predators are around, they stand erect like humans and express love in the form of hugs. I must say they are the proudest and smartest rodents Iv ever seen. Be kinda awesome if someone could transplant them to desert areas of AMERICA, I think they are from AFRICA, but they eat grasshoppers scorpions and snakes, I think they would do welllike in NEW MEXICO or PHOENIX ARIZONA if they were transplanted from AFRICA. But then the balance of nature could be upset if they are too hard on the food chain of indigenous species. Would be a neat experiment to see if they could do well wild in the USA.
Mesh Magick: Peachfaced lovebirds originate from the same dry, desert-type areas of Africa that meerkats do. There are two or three large colonies of feral escaped lovebirds in the Phoenix area that are doing very well. Then again, those folks in Arizona might just decide it would be a great opportunity for a meerkat fry... :->
Yes they are, but the ones in the NC state zoo are so fat they look more like grumpy prairie dogs (they don't stand, either). The ones in DC are cooler. No, we Arizonans don't need another rodent species. We're having enough trouble keeping the black-footed ferret population alive (their role in the ecosystem is strange yet vital. Don't ask me to explain).
