What To Expect
Watch as these "pint-sized" creatures go about their lives in one of our three meerkat exhibits, while our rangers share insights about their unique personalities and behaviours.
Did you know that meerkats are highly social animals, living in large groups called mobs and work together to find food, care for their young, and protect themselves from predators? You'll learn all about these and other "itty-bitty" details during your visit, as our rangers explain the enrichment techniques and training sessions we use to keep our meerkat mobs healthy and thriving.
From foraging and digging to grooming and playing, you'll discover the "miniature" details of their daily routines and the important role they play in their ecosystem.
Discover the "small-but-mighty" world of these amazing creatures!
