Meerkat Manor - Season 1

Triumph and mishap, comedy and tragedy - everything a good story needs, but this one is different, it stars a group of wild meerkats in South Africa. This ground-breaking thirteen part series records the daily lives of a group of meerkats known as "The Whiskers". Using state of the art camera technology above and below ground, and by tracking the group's movements 24 hours a day, the series paints a dramatic picture of a year in their highly complex and social lives. From viscous fights with rival gangs to infighting within the group, snake attacks, births of two dozen pups, and tragic deaths, "Meerkat Manor" includes animal behavior never recorded before. With characters that would be more at home in a real life soap opera, their entangled lives make for addictive viewing. MEERKAT MANOR is All My Children meets Wild Kingdom. The show is narrated by Sean Astin of "Lord of the Rings" and"24."

Meerkats

They are cute for a few minutes, but overall a bit boring. Nothing compares to David Attenborough's, The Life of Mammals. My 3 year old enjoys The Life of Mammals much more. September 23, 2008

ok, but not the best version availiable

if you don't want to buy DVD-Rs or not get the complete season, buy this one instead!

i like cats not meerkats

I don't understand why this show is about meerkats, they aren't even cute, what was animal planet thinking. This show should be about cute cuddly kittie cats. July 3, 2008
