The one who died a slow and painfully gorgeous death?

*Fang Wolf* · 10-28-2007, 02:39 PM

Yes, I know..

But She have Good Child as Rocket Dog

*ZariusTwo* · 10-28-2007, 03:13 PM

"IN" Rocket Dog

The show's a decent attempt at documented drama, but I cant stand this show's fanbase, they take the whole f*cking thing too seriously, all underage in the mind if not the body

*Fang Wolf* · 10-28-2007, 03:34 PM

I know...I Know..

But Like Show..

*ZariusTwo* · 10-28-2007, 03:39 PM

I'd like to see them try owning a Meerkat out of their insepid devotion, and slowly realizing theyd claw their faces off for food.

*Fang Wolf* · 10-28-2007, 03:40 PM

I Like see Kids Play

theirs Kids is so Cute

*ZariusTwo* · 10-28-2007, 03:41 PM

How do I shot web?

I LOVE Meerkat manor. It's one of my fave shows!! It was soo sad when Flower died....but hey...survival of the fittest after all and she lived a good life.

If I had $3000 I'd totally volunteer (that's how much it costs) to work for the Kalahari Meerkat project. Sure it would be 2 weeks in the desert but I'd be able to interact with and help monitor my fave Meerkats.

Pretty sure you ought to be assigned to new ones, just so personal attachments dont cloud immediate judgment on delicate situations

It takes a bit for the Meerkats to get used to people. There are some wild groups they try with from time to time but the researchers mostly stick with the current ones at this farm in South Africa (which is where the show is filmed). They've been following the Wiskers since the group was formed back in 1996.

I mean yea it would be cool to help em "domesticate" a wild group but I'd probably end up on detail of one of the current groups. Be it the Wiskers or the Commandos (Hannibal just looks pure evil), or the Zappa or the Vivian (a group not shown but many of the clans on the show have ancestry from it. Wiskers was started by a Vivian and a couple members of Young One).

Yea I've researched the history of the Meerkat project. It seems rather fascinating to me and totally something I'd love to do. Now if only I had $3000

And I totally can't wait to see the theatrical film they made about Flower called "Flower: Queen of the Kalahari"

$3,000? Forget that.

I'll give you $13 and you can go hang out at the Meerkat exhibit at Grassmere. Hell, I'll give you $50, and you can go whenever you want. It's just around the corner from me so don't forget your bullet proof vest

(ever notice how some zoos and stuff like that pop up in crappy neighborhoods?)

*Raph's Girl* · 10-28-2007, 10:18 PM

I wish there was a Meerkat exhibit in the Seattle area but alas there isn't. Closest one is in Portland....but there's also one at the Hogel Zoo in Utah....so next time Im in Utah (which will be Summer 2008 ) Im totally going there. My step-dad's never been to the Hogel Zoo and It's been a while since I last visited.

*BubblyShell22* · 10-29-2007, 07:44 AM

Yeah, I like this show. It's definitely cute and shows what life for the meerkats is all about. I'm sad that Flower died, but that's the way life goes. All in all, it's a pretty interesting show. I catch it on occasion, though I'm usually watching wrestling when it's normally on.
