I guess tall people annoy a certain height deficient meerkat, it didn't take much for him to challenge the eight foot tall, four hundred and fifty pound greek dire wolf to a match. While Atlas may have had his troubles with the speedy little critter, he was eventually able to slow him down. This seems to be a move of desperation by our dear little friend, (that's not patronizing at all) scrambling to try for a full nelson then settling for a loose sort of rear naked choke hold when he realized he had no leverage to do a nelson.
