About Carla Parris

Hi, Lori. This is a meerkat, and this fella, on lookout, is a sentinel meerkat. These animals live in highly organized groups, and diffferent ones have different jobs. And this particular one does have a great smiling face, doesn't he?
Carla Parris
Thanks, Lena! And I am really happy to have connected with you, too!
