If I were dictator of Victoria I would declare that every suburb needs a meerkat habitat, so everyone can visit meerkats whenever they need to. Boom, mental health improves by 1000%.

I once applied for a job at RCH specifically because the desk I’d be at all day, manning the reception for one of the outpatient clinics, was in direct sight of the meerkat enclosure they’ve got.
I did not get the job.
That wasn’t the only reason - the clinic is one I would have attended as a child, and I figured it would be good for kids and parents to see an adult version of their own experiences - but it was a big part of it!
