I can imagine, yea... it's basically saying the poison doesn't affect them, but how strong the bite is would still hurt them.

Never seen meerkats in the snow before. That's got to be a first.
Also, I didn't know that about meerkats! That's an interesting fact.

Yeah, it was weird for me too, but it was in Michigan so I guess I should have guessed.
