Adds tamable meerkats into the game, that will fight and protect you when in need.
They are omnivores so they can eat everything.
You can tame and breed them with any food item.
If not tamed then it will run away from players and monsters, but you can tempt them with foods to make them come near you.
You can find them in the savanna biome.
(In forge you can change this and other spawn settings by editing the json files in the data -> biome tags and biome modifier folders or via resource pack and in fabric there is a config file for it)
