First meerkat to emerge from the burrows

Slowly joined by others

The meerkats enjoy the warm sun as they all come out


The young play while the adults make sure it's safe



Their bare stomachs, when warmed by the sun, act as radiators to keep them warm


Looking for danger in the distance they begin to forage

While some stand watch...

the meerkats start to dig

searching for scorpions

insects

and grubs
