Answer:

They largely depend on it for survival as meerkats are omnivores.

Step-by-step explanation:

The combined effects of hotter and drier summers and fewer plants would threaten the persistence of the meerkat population. Since they eat plants and other living bugs that usually hang out in plant-abundant areas, their [meerkats] survival depends on the range of plants near them.
