For Lazuli, June began with just 11 members, no dominant female and only two females in the group. June’s Meerkatter features the story of these two sisters, Pataud (VLF319) and Bumble (VLF320) battling for dominance.
Alba experienced a decline in the health of many of its members this month. Signs of tuberculosis (TB) are seen in dominant female Cleopatra (VALF008), dominant male Pucky (VECM023), and in subordinates Tress (VALF020), Chia (VALF023), Xue (VALM024), Bachue (VALF025), Sunbeam (VALM028), Little-Creek (VALF033), Lorraine (VALF041) and Speedy Gonzales (VALM027). Samurai’s (VALM027) submandibular lump burst and he has lost considerable weight.
