Flowers That Look Like Something Else
The flower, as a reproductive organ, evolved with one primary purpose in mind – to attract pollinators like insects or birds. This function has driven their astounding evolutionary explosion of distinct colors and shapes, some of which have even come to resemble various recognizable figures, plants or animals. Their stunning colors and biodiversity have attracted another type of creature as well – us.
The Meerkat is a cat-like mongoose, native to Southern Africa. Its big eyes, extremely adorable playful face, brown-striped fur along with its vertical, two-legged posture makes it one of the cutest animals in the world. They live in large packs of up to 30 individuals and have a bizarre survival instinct. The Meerkat babies often receive an “aww” response from most of their visitors. The Meerkats are so cute that they even had their own TV show, ‘Meerkat Mansion.’
