Which of these affirmations about meerkats is FALSE:
Correct! Meerkats are way too small to attack a meso-carnivorous such as a jackal, even as a group. In fact they are terrified by them and would run for cover at the first sight of one! All other affirmations are true.
Nope, this is actually true! The War-Dance is a stereotypical aggressive behavior performed to protect the boundaries of a group's territory during an encounter. After waking up from the cold nights of the Kalahari desert, meerkats need to spend some time warming up in the sun before they can start foraging (this is also a great moment for socializing with fellow group members).
