Yes, this place is suppose to be an aquarium, but they currently have a special exhibit on meerkats. You can watch as they run around their enclosure, dig in the dirt & play with their toys (which happens to be a bucket, but they love it anyways!). Their enclosure also has a bubble window where kids can crawl under to get to, so they can see the meerkats closer.
Now if anybody has seen them on tv, you know that they will occasionally stand on their hind legs in search of predators. The ones at the aquarium, have realized they are fairly safe, so they rarely do this, even if you tap on the glass, which they probably find very annoying by now! Thanks to the person next to me, I found that if you try popping your gum very loudly, all of them will stand straight up, which is how I was able to get this cute picture!

"Host was very responsive, even the night we arrived. Everything was clean and easy in and out. Everything was comfortable. I probably would give 4.5 stars only because I couldn't figure out how to get the front walk lamp to light, and neither could the host. But overall, everything was great. I would rent this place again."
