A meerkat is part of the mongoose family. They live in all parts of the Kalahari Desert in Botswana and South Africa. They live in clans of twenty to fifty meerkats and live from twelve to fourteen years. The most famous meerkat is perhaps Timon from Disney's The Lion King.
Biologists have substantiated that meerkats are immune to some snakes' venom because they share ancestry with the mongoose family. In some parts of the world, such as India, people prize mongooses as house guards because they can wage battle with deadly snakes, like cobras.he scorpion may be aware the meerkat is close by, but the meerkat seizes it so fast that the arachnid can't respond. First, the meerkat zeroes in on the tail, biting off the scorpion's stinger and discarding it. Without its tail, the scorpion is unable to introduce venom into a meerkat's bloodstream.
