Gattaca

Zorilla (VGGF012) was born on November 23, 2003 into the Gattaca Mob. Her mother was Risca and her father was Izit. The number of pups in Zorilla's litter is unknown but one of her litter-mates was a female named Kleintjie (VGGF014). Risca and Izit were the dominant pair of the Gattaca who had lost their dominant positons in the Whiskers. Zorilla and her sister Kleintjie survived thier first few weeks and started foraging with the adults. Her mother Risca gave birth again on February 10, 2004 to four pups. Zorilla was a big sister. Her little siblings were Mary Pat, Mrs. Doyle, Father Ted and Jackie Chan. Zorilla was evicted in 2004 by her mother. Kleintjie was evicted as well. Then in December of 2004 Zorilla and her litter-mate sister Kleintjie were joined by some Young Ones males. The small group stayed together and formed a new group called the Commandos.

Commandos

The newly formed Commandos established a territory by the Gattaca, Whiskers, Vivian and Balrog. All of these groups were bigger then the new group. The oldest males named Aragorn established male dominance of the new group. Female dominance is normally taken by the oldest female but since Zorilla was the same age as her sister Kleintjie, it was less clear cut. Zorilla eventually established dominance over her sister bieng bigger and stronger. She was also aggressive and determine. Kleintjie finally submitted to Zorilla's authority. Zorilla and Aragorn started to produce litters. Unlike her mother Risca who wasn't very productive, Zorilla was very successfuly breeder. She had many big litters fast. The Commandos started to grow fast and became one of biggest groups. Zorilla's first litter was born between January 24-30 in 2005 when she gave birth to a litter of pups. Its unknown the number of pups she gave birth to, but was of the pups was Ketamine(VCDM001), the first meerkat to have the Commandos' group code. Another one of her new

pups was her daughter Benzedrine(VCDF002). She received the second Commandos ID code. Another of on her pups was a male named Drew. (VCDM007). Unfortunately it is unknown what litter he was born in. He was probably born in the second litter. His litter-mates are unknown. Then on September 12, 2005 Zorilla gave birth to Flash, AnnieAnnieAnnie, Miss Le Roux and Katharina. Zorilla probably evicted her sister every time she gave birth to a new litter. Kleintjie was always allowed back into the group though. Zorilla next litter arrived on November 30, 2005 when she gave birth to five pups. The new pups were Jasper, Hector, Tabatha, Beatrice and Jemima. Zorilla now was the dominant female of the Commandos for a year with her mate Aragorn. His brother Grog who helped formed the Commandos started to rove at the Lazuli. Zorilla gave birth to another litter of four pup on February 19, 2006. Danger Wank, Suzi Two-Tone MacFloozie, Fizgig and Baldersnatch were the new pups. Zorilla and Aragorn were going on their second year as the dominant pair of the Commandos. August 10, 2006 Zorilla gave birth to Wilson, Samba, Max, Moritz and Sereina. Then on December 23, 2006 she gave birth to Whiskey, Munro, Celidh and Coop. Aragorn sadly died on April 1, 2007. Zorilla lost her first love. Their eldest son Ketamine took over as dominant male beside his mother. He was three years old. Zorilla could not mate with any of the males within the group since they were by now all her sons. Zorilla needed to keep breeding to stay the dominant female or her sister or one of her daughters might over thrown her. A Whiskers rover named Jogu appeared by the Commandos. Zorilla took the opportunity and mated with him. In October 2007 five Whiskers males emigrated into the group. The males were Zarathustra, Miles, Baker, Panthro and Karim. Then some of her sons left the group to rove. The males were her sons Ketamine, Flash, Jasper, Hector, Danger Wank, Baldersnatch and Moritz. They are thought to have emigrated into a wild group or joined wild females. Zarathustra took over as dominant male. Zorilla gave birth to Jogu's pups on November 24, 2007. The pups were Benno, Yara, Cody and Sera. Zorilla started to evict her daughters and her sister now that there were unrelated males in the group. She first evicted Kleintjie and Benzedrien who were the oldest of the females. They she started to evict her daughters Beatrice, Katharina, Tabatha,

Jemima, Fizgig and Seraina. Kleintjie and Benzedrine then formed the Kung Fu group with some males. On August 7, 2007 Zorilla gave birth to a litter of two pups Captain Sensible and Punx. She later evicted her daughters AnnieAnnieAnnie, Suzi "Two-Tone" MacFloozie and Jemima who then started a new group named Geckos with wild males. Zorilla gave birth again on October 24, 2008 to De La Ray, Michiel Commandos, Stanley and Labiathon. Zorilla's daughter Beatrice gave birth on February 16, 2008 to six pups. They were Zorilla's first grandchildren born in the Commandos. They pups were Everest, Kili, Cho, VCDF042, VCDP043 and VCDP044. Three of the pups didn't make it though. Zorilla's new mate Zarathustra was predated and Baker then Miles started to fight for dominance. Baker won and was the dominant male for three months. Then Miles over threw him. The Commandos was struck with TB in 2009. Baker died sadly. Then Karim died soon after. On January 1, 2009 Zorilla died from the infection along with her son Cody and Miles. Zorilla had at least ten litters in her six year reign as dominant female of the Commandos. Her daughter Celidh took over as dominant female witht he last Whiskers males Panthro. The two reign over the Commandos for a few months but both died of TB with some subordinate females. The Commandos were lost in June 2009. Her daughters and son took dominance in other groups. Benzedrien became the dominant female of the Sequoia. Both AnnieAnnieAnnie and Suzie "Two-Tone" MacFloozie became the dominant female of the Geckos. Drew emigrated into the Whiskers where he took male dominance beside Rocket Dog but he was ousted by Zaphod. Ketamine and some of the other males joined wild females but most of the males disappeared. Zorilla was a fierce leader and she led many battles against other groups. She by the end of her life had many scars to prove she was a warrior. Her blood-line still lives one in her children and grandchildren. Zorilla will be missed and remembered as one of the greatest meerkats in the Kalahari Meerkat Project.
