What animals do before going to war

Social #animals (such as #meerkats) use a suite of preemptive behaviors in anticipation of #conflict, including staying quiet, monitoring their surroundings, conducting raids, and bonding through play. researchers describe how environmental cues and memories of past events can trigger these behaviors.

All was in readiness. The plan was foolproof. Within days, the loyal subjects of Space Emperor Meerk the Malevolent would emerge from their sleep capsules and subjugate the helpless Earthlings.

They suspect nothing, the fools…

🦫💍 A #Cambridge #University study used genetic #data to create a monogamy ranking of 35 mammal species, finding #humans at 66% full-sibling rates.

Humans ranked higher than #meerkats but below #beavers, with researchers noting monogamy likely evolved to enable paternal care and counter infanticide.

Not only did I save up to see her in-person, but I also heavily researched her on social media, directly asked Adelaide Zoo to confirm her birthdate, curated a chronological playlist of her life and updated her Meerkats Wiki page. I even had her listed in the safety plan I referred to whenever my mental health was at its worst. Rest In Peace, old girl 🤍

I can’t believe it’s already been a year since Snowy passed away, I miss her so much every day! As far as I’m aware, she still doesn’t have an onsite memorial at Adelaide Zoo, despite her unique appearance and impact.
Thanks so, so much to the 431 people who have supported the petition so far! 🤍💚

Really cool paper on #meerkats and on their #ontogeny (aka #development) of #foraging #skills.

Meerkats aquire mature foraging skills around 1 year of age, much earlier than their onset of #breeding and/or #dominance.

As far as I'm aware, there are currently no plans to erect a commemorative monument or plaque for Snowy, despite her unique appearance and profound impact on Adelaide Zoo. If you also think she deserves a tangible testament to her lasting legacy, please sign this petition:

I dedicate this special video to Snow White "Snowy" the Meerkat, who passed away on 31st October. As a meerkat enthusiast who spent years dreaming of meeting her in-person before finally being able to last year, the news of her death was heartbreaking. I'm forever grateful for the time I managed to spend with her, and to all the zoo staff and volunteers at ​⁠ for ensuring Snowy's life was as long and happy as possible. May she Rest In Peace 🤍

Happy #World_Meerkat_Day! 😄 Back in late May, I was able to fulfill my 3-year-long dream to visit Snowy, the world's only #white_meerkat! Her pale complexion was caused by #vitiligo, the onset of which occurred when she was 2 years old. Apart from needing more sun protection and becoming less active in her old age, Snowy remains a healthy member and dominant of her group! 🤍
