Do meerkats have teeth?

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.

Why do Apatasaurs stand on 2 legs when they are fighting?

One, the taller an animal is the more intimidating it appears, so by rearing up on hind legs and becoming much taller, it could scare off an attacker. Plus, by freeing up its front limbs, it could kick at an attacker. Although scientists believe it is possible they reared up on their hind legs, there is no conclusive evidence that they did that to fight.
