Prey and predator
Meerkats are very successful predators, but at the same time they can themselves be prey for many larger animals. Their predatory nature is shown by their sharp teeth and elongated, sensitive nose, which lets them sniff out roots, tubers and prey hidden underground. They are protected from larger predators by living in groups and by varied defensive behaviour, including characteristic sentry duty, warning members of the group of danger, hiding in burrows, and also an erect, intimidating stance with which they try to drive attackers away.

Birthday Celebration
You can celebrate a birthday at ZOO Ljubljana. During the celebration we experience smaller domesticated animals, with a focus on insects. We also visit the more charismatic larger animals in their enclosures and learn many interesting things about them. The celebrations are educational and fun, suitable for children and adults alike. We provide food, drink and an educational and entertaining programme.
