Video of newborn baby meerkat triplets emerges in Sydney

Adorable footage has been released showing the moment newborn baby triplet Meerkats venture out from the comfort of their nests.

The yet-to-be-named babies were born on August 31 to parents Aya and Penfold at the Symbio Wildlife Park in Sydney.

All three weighed an estimated 25 grams each and were just 8cm in length.

The 51-second video uploaded on the park’s Facebook page on Thursday shows the Meerkats shadowing their parents’ every move.

The post has had more than 189,000 views and more than 2,000 shares since it was uploaded.

A Symbio Wildlife Park media spokesperson said the triplets are expected to learn the ropes of becoming a meerkat over the next 12 months.

‘Actions of the parents are copied during this time which plays an important part in the integration of young meerkats into the social structure, by learning social skills as well as foraging techniques,’ he said.

‘The gestation period for meerkats is typically 10-11 weeks, so it was a much anticipated wait for both our staff and the new parents, but as you can see the wait was more than worth it.

‘Yet to be gender-determined, all three pups and parents are doing amazing, and just yesterday the pups made their first appearance on display for the public to see after they followed their parents out to greet their school holiday admirers,’ he said.
