Your Daily Dose: Meerkat scale training

An animal’s weight over time can provide a simple indication of health and well-being. So how do you train animals to have their weight checked? Trust, patience and a tasty treat for some added motivation! In today’s Daily Dose, Zookeeper Kristina gives you an up-close look at a scale training session with our meerkat mob – Petunia, Kruger, Kwando, Karoo, Bibala, Onawa, Opuwo, and Outapi!
