Meerkats are part of the mongoose family and live in groups that are called “mobs.” In the wild, they’re found in grasslands and plains of southern Africa. The meerkats can be seen at the zoo’s Small Mammal House in D.C. This spring, 400 Panamanian golden frogs hatched at the zoo’s facility. The baby frogs are not on exhibit now because they’re so small, about the size of a large grain of rice.
