- Info Group of young meerkats playing (Suricata suricatta), Makgadikgadi Pans National Park, Botswana. All by me, Poco2 22:15, 25 December 2018 (UTC)

- Oppose Not enough quality (composition and technical) - even on Christmas day. Charles (talk) 22:34, 25 December 2018 (UTC)
- Well, Charles, I took 200 pictures of this meerkats colony, which was in the middle of nowhere, uploaded 20 and chose this one because of its composition and sharpness. --Poco2 11:46, 26 December 2018 (UTC)
- I've taken dozens of meerkat images too, hence my comments, Diego! Charles (talk) 18:16, 26 December 2018 (UTC)
- Support Although I normally defer to Charles on wildlife shots, I see this one as a well-composed (aimed) shot from some distance away, and it's sharp as well. I also like the fact that the one on the left is looking into the camera. It can't compete with BBC or the like, but I think it's one of the best of its kind on Commons. Please correct me if there are better such shots already here. --Peulle (talk) 23:04, 25 December 2018 (UTC)

- Support per Peulle. Even at full size, the meerkats are pretty sharp. -- Ikan Kekek (talk) 09:59, 26 December 2018 (UTC)
