2017 Wildlife Photo Contest

Suricata suricatta/Meerkat, Makgadikgadi Pans National Park, Botswana
Meerkat Pups

Species: Suricata suricatta/Meerkat | Location: Makgadikgadi Pans National Park, Botswana

We had so much fun with the meerkats. We didn't see a family, but saw a ‘babysitter’ and pups. They were so cute. When we sat very still, they perched on us, oblivious as who or what we were.

About The Photographer

Primarily a colored pencil artist, I have always enjoyed photography. I often use my photographs as reference material for my drawings. My recent safari in Botswana offered wonderful opportunities to photograph wildlife.
