📋 About This Mod
This mod includes improvements for Adults and Juvenile Meerkat.
Facial textures have been repainted, whiskers have been added on snout, chin, brows and cheeks, head and eyes shapes have been tweaked and eye textures were repainted. Eyes mask has been made darker on the base coat aswell as the ears. Markings have been modified to be more subtle on the upper part and bolder on the rear part.
2 new variants have been added, which consist of albino, and an orange fur variant with subtle markings and a darker orange head.
This mod requires ACSE to work, it includes UI.
It's recommended to use the Planet Zoo Plus mod for a better experience.
Special thanks to Iben and Rob for supporting me to make this mod, and also thanks again to Rob for the showcase and UI pics.

✨ Key Features
📊 Pros & Cons
✅ Pros
- Active mod with 127 endorsements and over 6,400 downloads.
- Simple, focused improvement for meerkat visuals.
- Recently updated (April 2025), so likely compatible with current versions.
⚠️ Cons
- Only affects meerkats—if you're not into animal cosmetics, this won't add much.
- Small scope: just a texture overhaul and two variants, no new behaviors.
- Potential conflicts with other mods that alter meerkat models or textures.
For Minecraft players who enjoy wildlife variety and want their meerkats to look better. If you're a builder or explorer who likes detailed animals, this is a nice touch. Skip if you're looking for gameplay changes or new creatures.
