Das Erdmännchen (Suricata suricatta), auch Surikate oder veraltet Scharrtier genannt, ist eine Säugetierart aus der Familie der Mangusten (Herpestidae). Mit durchschnittlich 700 bis 750 g ist es eine der kleinsten Mangustenarten, es hat ein hellgraues Fell mit unauffälligen Querstreifen. Erdmännchen leben in trockenen Regionen im südlichen Afrika. Sie leben in Gruppen von vier bis neun Tieren mit ausgeprägtem Sozialverhalten und ernähren sich vorwiegend von Insekten. Sie zählen nicht zu den bedrohten Arten.
____________________________

The meerkat or suricate (Suricata suricatta) is a small carnivoran belonging to the mongoose family (Herpestidae). It is the only member of the genus Suricata Meerkats live in all parts of the Kalahari Desert in Botswana, in much of the Namib Desert in Namibia and southwestern Angola, and in South Africa. 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 12–14 years, and about half this in the wild.
