The Kung Fu Mob was started in late 2007 by two Commandos females, one of Gattaca origins, two Whiskers, a few wild males and one Frisky male. At the start of the group Kleintjie and Clinton Baptiste established dominance, however Clinton Baptiste disappeared in April 2008 and Ningaloo become the new dominant male. All founding members dispersed within a year except for the dominant pair. Dispersing females formed the Sequoia and the Ewoks. In late 2012 dominant male Ningaloo disappeared along with most of the adult males. After a group of Rascal males joined the group, Crux established dominance.
Dominant Pair
When the Kung Fu mob was formed, the dominant positions were taken by Kleintjie and Clinton Baptiste. After a few months Clinton Baptiste disappeared along with a wild meerkat. The position of dominant male was taken by Ningaloo. They held dominance for four years before Ningaloo disappeared, and Crux succeeded him.

Rivals
The Kung Fu's arch rivals are the Whiskers, and their latter enemies are the Sequoia Mob. New mobs later popped up the Kung Fu territory, these being Nequoia, Gremlins and the Ewoks, however the Nequoia and Gremlins soon moved away. In current days the Kung Fu only encounter the Whiskers, Sequoia and Ewoks.
Foundation Groups
Sequoia Mob was formed by Benzedrine, who wasn't born in the Kung Fu but helped form it. She joined one Whiskers female and and two Toyota males to form this group. This group is sill alive today.
Ewoks Mob was formed by five Kung Fu females, two Racals males and two wild males from the lost Colombians Mob. The first born female in the Kung Fu, McDreamy, took dominance in this group. This group is still alive today.
Meerkats 3D
The Kung Fu were the main focus of the 45 minute, 2011 wildlife documentary Meerkats 3D, also known as Clan of the Meerkats and Mighty Meerkats in 2D. Kleintjie, Bean and Maroon all had major roles, while several other meerkats such as Ningaloo, Pilko, Wales and Littl'un had minor parts.
