• The social network structure of a wild meerkat population: 1. Inter-group interactions (2009, background): “Group composition remains stable over time, although as individuals age, males tend to disperse to join or found other groups (Young et al. 2005) whilst non-dominant females are evicted from the group, either permanently or temporarily, by the dominant female (Clutton-Brock et al. 1998).”
• Latrine distribution and patterns of use by wild meerkats: implications for territory and mate defence (2007, unknown): “Alternatively, males may immigrate into an existing group by deposing the resident males after frequent, temporary, ‘prospecting’ intrusions (Young 2003; Young et al. 2005).”
