Product Description
Synopsis
Photographer Nigel Dennis spent two years in the Kalahari Gemsbok National Park, during which time he was afforded opportunities for photography which few others have enjoyed. The photographs provide insight into the private lives, behaviour and habits of these curious creatures, and capture them in many moods and in a wide variety of daily activities. It is accompanied by an informative and extremely readable text which documents the life of these animals in their desert habitat, examining their behaviour, social make-up and adaptation to an often hostile environment. Meerkats display almost human qualities, which make them the favourites of many wildlife watchers. This guide will stimulate and satisfy readers, allowing them to share in the world of one of Africa's most endearing animals.

5.0 out of 5 stars A must have for meerkat-lovers like me!, 4 Sep 2000
By A Customer
If you are not familiar with meerkats, check them out at your local zoo, they are very social creatures and entertaining to watch. After seeing them you will probably want to know more about them, so get this book. David Macdonald is an authority on meerkats and previously did the BBC film Meerkats United and an article for Smithsonian magazine. He took the famous picture of a group of meerkats standing on a mound, looking like a group of people. In this book, he wrote 30 pages detailing almost everything about meerkats from how they survive in the desert to how they raise their young. The remaining 70 pages of the book contain beautiful pictures by Nigel Dennis, showing not only all phases of meerkat life, but also their environment and neighboring species. I have been looking far and wide for a book on meerkats and this one fits the bill nicely.
