The common dwarf mongoose is a [[diurnal animal]]. It is a highly social species that lives in extended family groups of two to thirty animals. There is a strict [[hierarchy]] among same-sexed animals within a group, headed by the dominant pair (normally the oldest group members). All group members cooperate in helping to rear the pups and in guarding the group from predators.
