Sebastian the Meerkat Giving Hugs!

In honour of his 14th birthday, here is a compilation of Sebastian the meerkat - spending time with his meerkat friends Minki & Scoop, exploring the facility, and giving out hugs whenever he can. Sebastian is a captive-bred meerkat who was legally sold as a pet in South Africa. Unfortunately his owner provided inadequate living conditions and later surrendered him to Moholoholo Animal Rehabilitation Centre. Eventually he was relocated to Cheetah Outreach where he has found his home and family. Cheetah Outreach, CC. is operationally compliant as an institutional member of the Pan-African Association of Zoos and Aquariums. The non-profit Cheetah Outreach Trust directly supports the remaining free-ranging South African cheetah population with its proprietary nature conservancy program that places livestock guarding dogs throughout South Africa to mitigate human-wildlife conflict in the provision of a non-lethal predator control method. Essential to both the education mission and conservation delivery
