Why do meerkats all live together?
Meerkats have many predators such as snakes, martial eagles, jackals and other rival meerkat mobs.So therefore meerkats have big mobs tp protect themselves.It is like I scratch your back you scratch mine.If one meerkat protects another meerkat like when it is sleeping then that meerkat will return the favour.Everyone is always on watch for predators and various alarm calls mean different predators.A meerkat mob is like a giant family with the alpha female being at the head of it all.the alpha female does most of the breeding and meerkats are very social animals. To conclude meerkats live together so then they can protect ceach other and they are very social creatures so they do not fight often unless it is rival meerkats.
What type of predeter can eat a meerkat?
Predators of meerkats include, but are not limited to, birds of prey such as owls, hawks, and eagles, large snakes, and jackals. To protect themselves from predators, a meerkat pack has numerous escape holes scattered around their territory. While the pack is out foraging, at least one member attentively watches for predators. They often climb on a tree stump, rock, or other elevated place and stand on two legs to get a good view of not only the ground, but also the sky in case a bird of prey shows up. If a predator is spotted, the 'sentinel' gives an alert call and the whole pack runs to the nearest safety hole. However, if a snake is spotted, a meerkat pack will try to mob it and chase it away. Meerkats are more immune to snake venom then most mammals, but some snakes, such as the puff adder, are still very dangerous to them.
What animals do meerkats fear?
Meerkats are scared of anything that will eat them. Snakes and birds are two things that eat a lot of meerkats, so meerkats always have guards standing on their hind legs looking around for snakes, and looking up in the sky for hawks and eagles. Other predators include different kinds of cats (caracals and wildcats) and dogs (foxes and jackals). Like most animals, meerkats are also scared of anything that is unfamiliar, or that they don't recognize. The scientists who have been studying meerkats for the past few decades are now familiar to the animals, but if they do something unusual or bring in some odd new equipment, the meerkats will be scared. One scientist wrote about a time when his hat blew off of his head in a high wind - the meerkats thought the hat was something dangerous, and they all ran over to try to drive it away the same way they would attack a snake!
Can an animals be a both predators and prey?

What happens to a meerkat when its predators are dead?
No one will any longer try to eat them. The number of meerkats will increase. Eventually, they will run out of food, or room. They die of starvation, or from diseases spreading rapidly due to crowded living. Their population will collapse. If their food source recovers, and some meerkats have survived, it all starts over again.
What are some of a meerkat's adaptations?
Meerkats have black patches round their eyes, these act like sunglasses. Their long, curved claws make them excellent diggers which helps them to get at burrowing insects. Other structural adaptations include the colouration of their fur that helps camouflage them from predators. Hope this is helpful.
