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.

Meerkats are not native to Australia, so there are no wild meerkats in the country. Meerkats are native to Southern Africa, mostly in the Kalahari Desert, a very long way away from Australia.
