The Sanchez Mob was formed by six meerkats who were rescued from the Black Market and released in to the Kalahari Suricata Suricatta Project in early 2003. The three males soon left the group to form the Pharaohs and some Navajo males joined the females. Marquilla and Shingas have settled into the dominant positions.
Dominant Pair[]
When the group was released, Marquilla, who was the biggest female, took dominance of the group. Ranomdo became the dominant male but he and the other two males didn't stay with the females. After the males left, a group of Navajo males joined the three females. Shingas took over as the dominant male.
