text: From the first iconic film (David Attenborough's Meerkats United) in the 1980s, through the popularity of the unnaturally solitary Timon in The Lion King, to Meerkat Manor, the current docusoap that follows the lives and loves of individuals in one meerkat group over several seasons (and which now airs in 67 countries and has an audience in the US alone of 22 million), it is clear that meerkats exercise a strong fascination over a viewing public that extends beyond wildlife.
