Not specifically related to meerkats but we mentioned on the show, this is a brilliant ecologist who gives a talk about what makes humans different. As we’ve heard on our show, sometimes it seems like we can’t be that different, and this talk goes deep into the difference between a 9 and a 10 on our pretend intelligence scale.
