So they got a camera filming the camera man filming the meerkat...
😂😂😂😂😂
That "cameraman" is a civilized meerkat
U an Eminem fan? Hi 👋
I was thinking the same thing. Like really we need to see how hard this job actually is to follow these animals.
Buddy hes a meerkat too
I love how the Meerkats are like : "Move human!! Can't you see we're on the warpath?!?"
Arturo Vincentelli I imagine that in the same voice of the otters in south park
Hahahahaha
Arturo Vincentelli they don't know we are humans, they just ignore us
If meerkats went to war with humans that would be one good battle
0:31 Join us hooman
I love how they look adorable running around to us, but to them this is all deadly serious and they probably think they look badass.
Imagine two human armies clashing, covered in tactical gear, shooting high powered rifles and cannons with murderous intent, meanwhile that one hill over there is actually hollowed out by aliens who are oohing and aahing over the hairless monkeys carrying out their adorable little feud over resources and turf.
@@herbderbler1585 i- okay
@@herbderbler1585 exactly!!!
It is serious stuff, they'll literally rip each other into pieces. Cuteness is perceived by your mind, death is an actual factor here
@@joselara5694 what's your point tho, lol.
"The intruders must have realized there was no point in putting up a fight."
Well to be fair from intruder's point of view, what they saw was the enemy tribe on a warpath accompanied by a small group of colossi carrying around a giant black boxes and poles.
That's what I was thinking, they saw the giants running with the enemy!
That english tho..
I let the vid play for a minute before going thru the comments and as soon as I started reading your comment, she says this quote hahaha
Hahahaha! Exactly! It must really throw off the natural balance. One group is totally accustomed to the humans, while the other is probably scared of them
THEY HAVE GIANTS!!! RETREAT!!!!😂
I’m amazed at how comfortable they are with the cameraman. I also liked that “behind the scenes shots.”
I saw an episode wherein BBC Cameraman explained that they've been covering the whiskers family for years, they've been accustomed to seeing the humans all the time and just ignore him. Most of the time they use him as a lookout tower. Climbing up on his back and head and sit there and patrols for intruders. LOL

Thanks.
hes a part of their clan now
Scripted. Those cute meerkats are actors.
All part of the globalist elites' plan.
False flag false flag eddie bravo is looking into it
Spider Web god damn it now every thing is scripted
Crisis actors 100 %! cant trust the bbc anymore
Yep, one meercat had a microphone collar on 1:14
Ernesto wont be taken down that easily !
He dies later on
SSaul give him a break he was bitten by a god damn cobra lmao
@@paulogomes6268 still he held his own for a while. He survived a bite that could kill 10 of us

Ernesto use your right eye and take out that cobra.
When the camera man running with his camera equipment -- it resemble an ATGM.
OMG that Cobra messed up Enerstos face! Poor guy!! He must feel like he came back from the dead!
Yeah, Ernestos is looking *ROUGH,* poor little dude.
The others call him Scarface now.
@@Lexicon-ff6or Scar xDD
Yeah ... Enersto

2:41 A cameraman filming a cameraman filming meerkats 😂
“Here we see the wily cameraman in his natural habitat. What a remarkable creature, very nimble. He carefully repositions himself for a better shot. He is aware that his survival depends on getting this shot. If he doesn’t get it, he will be unable to get paid for his work....ultimately leaving him hungry for the winter.”
Why do they have giant cameras? I could do this with my iPhone.
@@danielalvarez3499 Haven't you heard of zoom lens? Pick up a physics book and learn about focal length.
Ernesto coming back like a soldier from no-man’s land, scars and all.
The Whiskers omyyyy. I haven't heard that name in years.
A lot of these guys are actually Flower's grandchildren and great-grandchildren.
Probably great-great and great-great-great grandchildren by now... they have grown a lot in the last few years if this is recent, they had a bit of a rough patch there for a while...
James 455 I use to be obsessed with meerkat Manson I remember the name flower she was one of the leaders in the beginning Maybelline was another once flower passed if this show is still running that's amazing :)
Oh my god, yes! I used to watch them when Flower was still matriarch.
James 455 Ditto
I miss meerkat Manor
Maryah O me too
shit was lit fam
My heart doesn’t...
Same
Cameraman: Im gonna take fotage and video of this animals life!
The other camera man: im gonna take fotage and videos of the wild life of this cameraman!
Bitten by a cobra and he survived… My heart goes to Ernesto. May he live a full life
He protec

AI Gamer Guy With what? Memes as stale as that dusty box of week old donuts at the corner store?

Meerkats are so cute.
OMG! The Whiskers!!!! TTATT I've missed them so much!!!!
This video should be called.........
---Camera man films Camera man filming Meerkat Gang war--- 😂
I see ernesto carries on Shakespeare spirit. I havent seen this show in ages.
Must have been passed on. Shakespeare to Mitch and so on.
MagicianFairy Shakesphere and Mozart are my favorites . I don’t like when they get hurt or die. I get so attached to animals. I enjoy Safari Live & Wild Life.
Oh, how I miss seeing our beloved ‘kats; God Bless them all 💖
The whiskers I have seen them since the leader died from a snake bite. This was my favorite show and it was on the night I had my bone marrow transplant and because the medical staff knew it was playing while I received my marrow a room full of people got an education on Meerkats. The next year I got to see real meerkats at the zoo in Louisville. I did not live there my donor did and he arranged it now isn’t that something I should have been doing something for him but he does it for me. They are so small.
Broke my heart when Flower died , I was so angry that they didn't save her. I was a 44 year old grown man when Flower died yet I cried like a baby and I was in a state for weeks after
Awesome story. So glad youre ok.
China is out competing our countries
Gloriousturtlechan yea I don’t believe in helping animals. Of course unless their death is from a trap and such. I believe that if an animal is to die from natural causes or nature killing it I don’t think we should help as that would mess with the circle of life.
@@erasedkarma we're part of nature. just do whatever you think feels right.
some whales and dolphins save humans and seals, too. to whales, we're cute just like these critters in the video are to us, and they save us because of that.
The Whiskers..... now that's a name I haven't heard in years.....
JDeO1997 I
I used to watch them when flower was still Queen. I was like 5. Im 13 now and its just so nostalgic
I can't agree more... it's been ages.
Amazing how real families has each other backs. That's awesome 😊
Pumpkin0330 titi What about fake families? ... you think fake families don't have each other's backs?!.... hmmm?
Who hurt you? Lmao
They didn’t have his back when they thought he was dead for two days.
@@youngchrisbaby9009 yeah, they kind of ditched him
If you survive being bitten by a Cobra, are you now immune/resistant?
That is NOT how venom works
*GoombaGenocide* Interesting. I've seen a video of a guy who injects himself with snake venom.
No. Most venoms act too fast for an immune system to respond. You need a ton of antibodies immediately to neutralize the toxins. If you are repeatedly (ie, way more than twice) exposed to low doses of venom, it’s possible you could have enough antibodies to act if you get bitten. But that’s a long and painful process that likely will damage your body. And it may very well not work if the animal gives you a high enough dosage.
You can build resistance to some toxins (not all) by gradually exposing yourself to micro doses (extremely diluted samples) over a few years. But never full immunity, there is simply no biological mechanic for that.
If the guy you watch says anything different he's spreading dangerously inaccurate information for views
If the guy you watch is telling people they can become instantly immune by getting bit, you should report him. It's the same as telling kids to eat tide pods or something equally silly
Edit: and in no circumstance will you gain immunity from one bite.
dbsirius you are vunerable again !!
Couldnt help but laugh at how small they were when they showed the camera man next too them 😂😂😂
Ernesto my man!
The Wiskers... I haven't heard that name in years! :0
I love that they also add some scenes of the cameraman. I'm always curious when watching these videos about where the cameraman is and what he's using to film as of equipment.
Me too
They look so cute with their tales in the air, especially when they run.
It's amazing how the cameraman knew their tribe and individual names!
One day I'd like to grow up and learn meerkat language too
I love the dedication the cameraman has for his job, so focused and enthusiastic!
I don't get it. Where are the warthogs?
End China
@trenbolonely Are you talking to me?
The Cameraman Deserves A Pay Rise
Agree With a LIKE
wow..amazing.....
no
ROHTASH SAINI There is no curry here.
Omg I remember the whiskers. And flower. Watched it and was disappointed as she died from a snake bite. Absolutely loved that show.
Meerkat didn't choose the thug life. The thug life chose them
Your one mate who passes out at the pregame but shows up at the party
0:19 THEY'RE SO SMALL!
"THE WHISKERS" really pulled up 😂😭💯💪💪
"he's a real warrior. he's going to be okay." (sad music in background) Good grief.
As he gets back in his post. 😂😂 reminiscing about the time he got bit by a cobra.
Didn't know the whiskers were still a group, last I heard of them their numbers were critically low.
Danni Cree meerkats can bounce back quickly throughout the years! :)
According to the most recent report, they currently have 14 members: www.kalahari-meerkats.com/fkmp/wp-content/uploads/2018/08/2018-07-KMP-Life-History-Table-Jul-2018.pdf
Eccentric Gamer they named one of the families Van Helsing? Please tell me they are all named after vampires/hunters.
This is the same group from Meerkat Manor? bring the show back! please! I love them.
Is meerkat manor back? I miss Flower and Zaphod
This is so sweet
Meerkat Manor....
My day got better by watching this
Ernesto, thug life!!!
I never thought I'd hear abut the Whiskers again, good to see they're still scuttling around
Wow I remember this documentary. Flower was the dominant in the WHISKERS group. And she got bit by a snake. And died. I was definitely sad. Gorgeous little critters. Tysm for sharing. I remember this as well.
Swift is actually Flower's great-granddaughter, and now the leader of the Whiskers.
@@annafowdy hi there! Wow it's been so long since I watched that. Ya flower was absolutely amazing. I was definitely sad. And that's amazing to know. Tysm for sharing!!! ❣TV b safe
I miss Meerkat Manor
even the cameramen have nice voices
They are so damn cute.
Intelligent animals, always on the lookout for any danger.
Its cool to see the whiskers are still around, haven't heard that name in years!
Shakespeare????
Adnan Ilyas we watched the original
It's still too soon
Omy I never got over that loss
I love meerkats they are like a power clan with laws and stuff.
I'm glad he made it back home 😊
that was the most cute army on a warpath I ever seen.
THIS IS FROM MEERKAT MANOR! YOU CAN'T FOOL ME, YOU SNEAKY SNEAKS
Objectives
*Investigate the threat.
*Secure the threat.
Objective updated
*Reunite with Lost Meerkat.
*Escort Meerkat back to HQ.
Round of applause to those passionate camera men.
These guys remind me of the local elementary school kids on summer vacation trying to be tough in the neighborhood playground
My boy got bit by a cobra and lived
😂😂😂 they are so used to the cameraman its like their own reality show.
You don't know how much this inspires me every time, when I am feel low ... When I get tired of working hard ... His recovery story helps me to work more hard.
I am struggling to remember if I heard anything more depressing than that!
Yes keep going!
Unfair, this group brought a big ass dude with some mean looking hardware.
Man, I used to watch Meerkat Manor all the time when I was little
omg it's the family from meerkat manor! my ap bio teacher played that in class sometimes and it became a meme favorite for ppl in my grade lol
i like how there's a cameraman to record the other cameraman
What a trooper! Ernesto is one remarkable meerkat.
What an adorable war path:)
Is this part of meerkat manor? That show made me cry when Flower died, man.
ClockWork Rat I’m pretty sure meerkat manor was cancelled. I have no idea what this is from.
they cancelled the show but the scientists still film the family.
Miranda S The meerkat clan doesn't disappear just because the cameramen stop getting paid.....
This is BBC film my friend
I never knew about meerkats until i watched Meerkat Manor and yes, I too cried when Flower died.
I love the camera crew being filmed because it really gives so much more depth
male Meerkat : " What if i want to have sex before I get married? "
the Meerkat family : " Well, I guess you just have to be prepared to die "
The way meerkats have their hands in-front of them like they do is the mostly insanely cute thing I've ever seen.
Used to love Meerkat Manor. I was given a small Meerkat statue and wrote on the bottom "RIP Flower" Loved her that much hahaha awwh
Gladiator of the gladiators:a very strong little guy surviving and returning home after a cobra bite,now he needs a eye patch for his great honor.
You breaking my heart when you remind me of the matriarch flower of the desert 💔😭🤔
A true legend.
If these guys survive when human extinct, they will be the next sentient being. I wonder if they will have flat earther cult too some day lol.
Omg I didn't realize how tiny they were
I burst into tears when I saw him. You can see he has survived so much. So happy to see him reunited with his family
More like a tribe or clan, rather than a family since they live with the descendants of great grandparents and great great grandparents
They're so cute stands like human
The production team behind this is amazing. Would've never thought meerkats were so complex. Great job.
They're so cute 😍
Well it certainly seen better days.
Timon has been severely injured
"u should see the other guy"
- Ernesto McMeer, 2017.
I miss meerkat manner...shit was amazing
Cutest end ever
Spot a lone male. I think he is talking about me ~ Cameraman
@ 1:14 is that a collar?
LuDimezofKush they have radio collars on the dominate females to keep track of the group
Ariella Sinistaj no, its microphone. These meerkats is paid actors
Yea radio collar to track them
GPS collar.
If the meerkat clan moved while the cameramen are asleep, they have to end the entire series with "uhh, we don't know where they are.... remarkable!"
Meerkats move of one
Amazing 🙏🏻💯
Beautiful animals
I don't see 🐍 in this video
"meerkat warfare" that's a term I never thought I would hear
Is this the Whiskers family of the Kalahari in Botswana or Namibia
Muchie yes
From which season please cos I can't remember him ?
Ernesto meerkat having the same feeling as a person who survived ww2.
1:15 They seems my cat 🤣
Fede Losacco i dont get it sorry
I'm glad he's going to be okay.
You mean he's developed immunity to cobra venom?
Sparka J Nah.
The face is not vital to living.
He can clearly still see, and his jaw is un-swollen, so he can clearly still hunt and defend himself.
Sparka J Cobra venom is FAST acting.
If it didn't kill him the first day, it's not gonna kill him the 4th, especially not with family members to feed and defend him while vulnerable.
Sparka J His immune system has probably cleared out most venom already, and now he just has to heal what is likely cosmetic tissue damage.
