Me too hon. Me too. I lost almost all of my family members/friends due to our differences in religious, political, and pandemic beliefs. Idk why, but your comment struck a chord with me. I guess because even though we choose to be true to ourselves, it still hurts like hell that our own flesh and blood rejects us for whatever reason. Best wishes from a random stranger on the internet.

I’m the same way. It looks like they’re wearing sunglasses. Mongooses are very fearless animals. I’ve seen one run full speed when he spotted a Cobra and fought with it. They have to be the bravest animals for their size
And auntie is safe from all the poisonous snakes. Cause a family of 50 (!) mongoose is going to literally eat any snakes stupid enough to even slither into the proximity of their nes, den, whatever.
Thank you for this video. I really needed this heartwarming story! Cameron is absolutely adorable and it's fascinating to see how she fits in with her mongoose "cousins."
Meerkats are absolutely adorable! Mongooses are cute too but Meerkats take the cake with cuteness!💕 What an AWESOME Auntie! It’s amazing to see two different species getting along better than some humans who are the same exact species!!!
These animals are actually related to one another, as they are all members of The Viveridae Family, which includes Meerkats, Mongooses, Binturongs, Fosas, Civets, and Genets
They aren’t in the viverrid family. They’re in a sister group, both of which are included within the infraorder viverroidea. Only civets, genets, linsangs, and the binturong are included in the viverrid family.

OMG, I watched a documentary about mongooses and when they'd have a new litter, all the adults would scent mark each and every one, it was sweet and gross
I hope this isn't too weird of a question but, would Cameron accept a male mongoose as a mate? They probably won't be able to produce offspring, but the other mongooses think she's one of them, and she seems to agree.
Awww. For real! I felt so bad for how long she was on guard… When did she get time to eat? She does so much work in the family - even helping raise all those kids on her own. It looks like an exhaust of life, but bless her little heart for being such a great family member. I wonder if they even are aware enough to be grateful for all that she does.

“She might have a meerkat accent but she thinks she’s a mangouste”😂😂😂
Family isn't always genetics, sometimes it's the family we choose & choose us back. Definitely true for me.

Epic Image and position.

Thank you 🙏
Just what I needed to read , positive vibe and much love to you 💗
They got that spiritual bond goin
Imagine if they got her a mate and in a few years you got a massive herd of mongoose and meerkats running around
Mongoose: eating
Cameron: I am the watcher
I am your guide through these vast new realities. Follow me and dare to face the unknown, and ponder the question... What if?
No? Okay.
@@nb5369 Then, they all fall asleep pondering
I adore meerkat's and admire mongoose. This was really neat to see.

I love animals
humans are more dangerous than animals. they destroy everything.
Dom Toretto would be proud at what you said at the end.
1:04 I am that weird one auntie
I miss meerkat manor...and Gimli doing the voice over was icing on the cake
I don't understand people keeping Meerkats as pets. They are cute, sure, but they need more than human companionship.
That is to me also animal cruelty!
They appear to be on a reserve and not pets but voice-over narration is awful and uninformative.
@@livisunshine3700 bruh
@@annastinehammersdottir1290 I think they are talking in general
Cruel and selfish humans.
I love this story. As humans we are all part of the same family. There should be no differences there.
=_=
In that thumbnail, she looks so chill.
Nevermind the fact meerkats ARE a species of mongoose.
They are part of the mongoose family not species.
@@ACIDRAIN2142 they are a species of mongoose. A very different species from the banded mongoose however
@@ACIDRAIN2142 In a family are different species of that family.
@@TheAstroflight lmao I have never heard of a meerkat-mongoose hybrid
They explained that.
Come on man. find a fine gentleman for Cameron. She is a cutie, she is gonna be a great mom.
“If it looks like a family, if it smells like a family, then heck....It is a FAMILY."-

Thank you. Wonderful break from news of the day.
They have the same habits . which makes this cute..
Good video. I was the cameraman. Now retired.
But not tired...
She is my spirit animal.
And auntie is safe from all the poisonous snakes. Cause a family of 50 (!) mongoose is going to literally eat any snakes stupid enough to even slither into the proximity of their nes, den, whatever.

Basically, meerkats are mongooses.
I’m the black sheep of the family
Now
I’m the meerkat of the family
Very sweet. Thank you.
What a Awesome Auntie
It's the thumbnail giving real auntie vibes though😄😄😄
A perfect example of what makes a family.
4:04 dom toreto: did anyone say family
Vin Diesel: that's what I'm talking about
My auntie is the same way, very supportive and hardworking
Awe how sweet is that. These just so cute plus they got each sixes which is so great. I just love watching these odd couple .
That is one adorable little family!! I love Meerkats, they are so cute!!
Holy crap cuteness over load
I just love Meerkats, what a great story
Adoptions, always a good choice:)

The best picture of silly meerkat
Family don’t end with blood - it doesn’t start there either.
Cameron is that special aunt in the family we all love❤
Everybody needs a family, sometimes not by same looking, but by love.
Cameron Diaz must be thrilled to have such a cute meerkat named after her.
"she might speak with the meerkat accent..."😂
That cracked me up too
2:15 the thumbnail
Beautiful Mongoose Family
3:29 That really cracked me up 😂😅
They're so, so cute
This is beautiful.
Carmen and I..we step in babysitting lol
*1:48** When you hit the gym every day and don't get those 6 packs but Cameron does without having to work out*
I adore mongoose and that they are always a wonderful family 👪❤💜💕💖♥
Best story and narration ever.
🥰This just hit my cute-o-meter!
They're all SO COOL
I ain't got mongoose friends...
I got FAMLEE!

Very cute 🥰
So wholesome 😍
Why am I crying??? So sweet!
"I call him Gary."
"Gary?"
"After the first president of the United States."

Beautiful
That is the worlds funniest pose
God bless Cameron an her mongoose family
Would mongooses normally use a sentry? Or is that only meerkat behavior?
I looove meerkats!!!!! 💕
I really hope Cameron gets a mate she must be so lonely even if there is other animals around
Very well done video, cuteness aside, very well done.
Thts so adorable!
Cameron is adorable.
Love these little animals
She looked so chill in the thumbnail
It would have been nice, had they brought another meerkat with her - as long as they had been running out of room anyway.💕
There was another one, but he said that it died. They just never got another one.
@@chazd741 oh that's too bad.
Fantastiskt. 👍😄❤
Sometimes a family can be a clan of mongoose and their adopted meerkat sister.
AMAZING THE BONDS THEY HAVE AND SHARE THE LOVE ❤
😀 did I see a six pack on that mongoose? Lol. Such reliable sentinel.
How awesome! I just love watching them! Thanks
Precious!
Odd member of the family but member of that family 🤣
Meow Cat !! So adorable.😀
Cute animals.
They keep dirtying the camera lens with their noses lol 😭😭😂😂😂
Meerkat mongoose!!!
Next time my manager throws an unopened apron at me and says its my bonus, Im telling him "hey, a dead bat - Bonus!!" Lol
Lot to learn from nature🙏
❤️ for Meerkat.

No wonder Timon was a super friend to Simba, Pumba and the rest of the family 🤣. Hyenas are soo uncool...
So sweet!
I'm moving. I'm going to help Cameron out with sentry duty. I'm taller than her, so I think I'll be useful!
