The Rascals Mob was founded in 1998, when a few evicted Vivian females teamed up with five wild males and formed the group. Dominance was taken by Kine and Splash. After the two were predated, the group's numbers fell down to seven with all the Rascals meerkats were under 18 months old. The eleven-month-old Yeca took dominance next to wild male Spofl. The group's numbers began to rise exponentially. The two stayed dominant for a few years until 2007, when Yeca was killed and Spofl disappeared. Soon after, the group was left with three females, Blondie, Tooey and Islay with a succesion of wild males joining then leaving the group. Over the next two years, the group had three litters with few of the pups surviving. In August 2009 dominant female Blondie was killed and her sister Islay took dominance but she was killed only months later. Blondie's eleven-month-old daughter Sancerre became dominant female beside dominant male Grus, and together they held dominance for three years bringing the Rascals' numbers back up. However several litters were born to subordinate females. In late 2012, Grus died and natal-male males have held dominance since then.
