Kal is 8 and loves to learn & share facts about animals. He dictates his posts for his mom & dad so that it's all written in his own voice. Mom & Dad do not do any fact-checking, but Kal seems to have an uncanny memory for all things animal-related. He hopes that one day his blog will be as famous as National Geographic.

Meerkat
The meerkat is a very fast animal. And they live in, well, holes. And these creatures' predators are mostly eagles and large birds of prey, of course. And there are many different jobs for different meerkats. You see, some meerkats do one job and some do another. Well, here's one of the jobs: the lookout, who must watch for predators. And some dig the holes. They are very good diggers, but sometimes it's easier just to borrow a hole from the aardvarks. You see, when the aardvark is done using the hole, many other creatures may want to live inside the hole. That's what the meerkats do - they go inside the hole sometimes.

Wow I had no idea they had their own jobs and borrowed holes from aardvarks - very clever!
