Meerkats not only have tails, their tails are almost as long as their bodies! Meerkats use their long tails for balance: They stand on their hind legs and put their tail down on the ground, making their own tripod of sorts.
When a meerkat fights for dominance, its tail goes up--perhaps to make it look bigger and fiercer. When meerkats run, their tails go up, too--perhaps so other meerkats in the mob can see where the leader is headed.

What are the meerkats predater?
eerkats are not very big, so there are some animals that will eat them - if they can catch them! A jackal is a kind of wild dog that hunts meerkats. Here is a picture of a jackal. nother animal that hunts meerkats is the serval. A serval is a kind of cat that is bigger than the kind of cat you might have as a pet. It isn't as big as a lion or a tiger, but it is big enough to eat meerkats. Servals and jackals both have to sneak up on meerkats if they want to catch them. If the meerkats see a serval or jackal in time, they can run into their tunnels or get ready to fight. Meerkats have long claws and sharp teeth that can make them hard to catch. ere is another enemy that meerkats have to watch out for, and this one can be harder to escape. Martial eagles like to swoop down out of the air and snatch up a meerkat. The eagles fly so fast that it's hard for the meerkats to see them in time to hide. That makes the martial eagle the most dangerous enemy of meerkats.
