Does anyone else here like this show?

I love it! Its such an awesome study to do, and even cooler to make a show out of it.

Right now, I do not like Houdini, I feel so sorry for poor little Squiggy, and think that Punk (or whatever her name) needs to be smacked around a little bit.

I wanna watch it, and will, but I can't watch it with my bf.

He knows very well the 'oh, it's SO cute! WANT!' comments, and doesn't wanna hear that

9/17/2007 8:27:44 PM

Oh no! Poor Squiggy is about to starve to death Left to the desert because of the food problems.
And his brother just got picked off by a hawk.

Sometimes, I wish that the poeple filming this would have some live feed to their lab and they could go save Squiggy and put him in a zoo or something. But at the same time, its all a part of the life cycle.

Houdini's a pimp - i just hate seeing when one of them dies

9/17/2007 8:34:23 PM

I've seen it before, not on a regular basis or anything, but it is very cute and entertaining.

9/17/2007 8:35:27 PM

He is a pimp, but he is a Zappa, not one of the Whiskers... therefore, can't be a favorite of mine.

9/17/2007 8:35:59 PM

9/17/2007 8:36:03 PM

I BET YOU WANT TO BLAST THEM WITH A HIGH POWER RIFLE FROM FIVE HUNDRED YARDS AWAY DUR DUR DUR

9/17/2007 8:36:35 PM

Poor Lola... stripped of her rights of Dominant Female BY HER SISTER, bad bite from a venomous bug, anal marked by Punk.

Punk needs to lay off Lola...

9/17/2007 8:43:21 PM

FLOWER TOOK A FATAL BITE TO THE HEAD BY A KING COBRA!!!

She was the dominant female for 4 1/2 years, made the strongest, largest family on the manor ever; and she was just the most amazing meerkat on the show. I am so sad!

you need to drop that zero, and get you a hero

and by hero, I mean the sandwich

because we all know that's what you really want

10/8/2007 8:51:05 PM

no the guy that actually does the research on the meerkats...not the narrator

^^no she went out on the field with him to see what he does, met the meerkats including Flower.

see my s-i-l has this dream to start up a project where people go abroad to volunteer at various wildlife research and rehabilitation facilities in africa. she went and met with different zoologists and biologists to see if they would be interested in signing up, went on the field with them to see what it was they actually did, and brought it back here to start up her business. long story short, she's working with a local project here in raleigh to have the meerkat contract, an african penguin contract, and a cheetah contract part of their program for students.

^ How did he meet Flower though? Did they take her out of the manor?

10/8/2007 8:52:41 PM

10/8/2007 8:54:40 PM

GO WHISKERS!! STAND UP TO THOSE ZAPPA!!!! HOLD YOU LAND, AND SEND THOSE BITCHES BACK!!! DO IT FOR FLOWER!!!!!



^ Oooh, ok.

[Edited on October 8, 2007 at 8:56 PM. Reason : ]

^^^^that would be so awesome, go out and see those animals for research

well, not so much the penguins

IT'S NOT REAL

10/8/2007 8:58:12 PM

yeah she's been over three times doing various things. pretty exciting. especially now that this group here in raleigh is picking up her programs. if all goes well, they'll add more! unfortunately they only do high school students, and she really wanted to do college age kids and older.

[Edited on October 8, 2007 at 9:00 PM. Reason : alright, time for heroes!]

I would like to work in endangered species rehabilitation some day. Australia would be perfect. But, I'll take what I can get.

10/8/2007 9:02:53 PM

IT'S A FAKE SHOW

10/8/2007 9:04:10 PM

I won't watch the show because I think it is ridiculous to anthropomorphize animals

they don't have people feelings and experiences because they aren't people

they have meerkat feelings and experiences, I'm sure
but we can't understand them because we are people

10/8/2007 9:12:04 PM

they don't give them voices, and make them talk... all they do is talk about their lives.

10/8/2007 9:14:10 PM

yes but they make up shit about their lives
its a fiction

why don't you watch a people show about people doing people stuff?

10/8/2007 9:15:04 PM

b/c people aren't that cute

10/8/2007 9:17:06 PM

sad

10/8/2007 9:17:10 PM

I don't like people, I like animals.

10/8/2007 9:17:39 PM

so why don't you go live with the meerkats and never come back, huh?

10/8/2007 9:18:48 PM

That's just ignorant.

10/8/2007 9:19:20 PM

do you prefer animals because you feel alienated by society... maybe threatened by elements of the world that are out of your control?

you like animals because you can project anything you want on them
you have total control


[Edited on October 8, 2007 at 9:21 PM. Reason : -]

10/8/2007 9:20:29 PM

No. I like them because they are more awesome than human animals. I am not a controller and I am definitely not alienated by society.
