Friendly & Curious Meerkats Climb All Over BBC Camera Crew

The camera crew of BBC One’s series Planet Earth Live put together this behind-the-scenes video of some friendly and curious meerkats climbing all over them during filming in Africa. After years of being studied and filmed, the meerkats have no fear of humans and see the crew as “part of the landscape”. Towards the end, one little critter climbs on top of a cameraman and uses him as a vantage point for surveying for predators.
