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!

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.
