A meerkat siting up on rock
Yorkshire Wildlife Parks Meerkat. The meerkat or suricate is a small carnivoran belonging to the mongoose family. A group of meerkats is called a `mob`, `gang` or `clan`. A meerkat clan often contains about 20 meerkats, but some super-families have 50 or more members. In captivity, meerkats have an average life span of 12ââ¬â14 years, and about half this in the wild.
