Season 1

Meerkats may be small and vulnerable, but they're also tenacious creatures that thrive in the unforgiving Kalahari Desert. From specially adapted eyes that reduce the sun's glare to an industrious ability to construct complex underground tunnels, see how these incredible animals survive in one of the harshest environments on Earth.

Two rescued meerkat mobs face a steep learning curve with their new life.

Marli's pups are growing fast. After a fight with the Wild Bunch, Zola encounters wild male Zipho after a new mate.

Thunderstorms mark the start of summer, Marli's pubs begin to eat solids and Thimba struggles to cope.

The five pups are thriving, and a new rewilded family arrives.

Shaka pulls off a coup, stealing his brother's crown and the affections of the queen of the Wild Bunch.
