(Very) pregnant Malayan tapir Yuna -- can see the baby moving! They don't know exactly when she'll be giving birth, but looks like it'll be soon. Also -- most stuffed toy tapirs have the white mark going all the way around, but as this photo shows, the tapir's underside is dark.

A new Baird's Tapir showed up in my yard tonight. This is a lactating female, so she must have a baby nearby.

Was lucky enough to visit Sungai Dusun today, the only official Malayan Tapir breeding/conservation centre in Malaysia.
Not open to the public, but you can apply on the government hotline to visit at a designated time. It’s about 1.5 hour drive north of Kuala Lumpur. The keepers were extremely friendly and knowledgeable about tapirs and general conservation in Malaysia. The centre has bred over 20 tapirs since the early 2000’s.

Where is the best place to see tapirs in the wild ?
Hi,
I recently had a random income. So I now have enough money to travel wherever I want and make my dream come true : seing tapirs in the wild. I also would like to see shark whales in the wild and I'd be glad to see both at the same place aha.
I was thinking about going to Malaysia, but I may have more chances to see tapirs in South America ? Are there tours ?
My boyfriend also would love to see amorphophallus. He was into going to Borneo but now IDK.
What would you guys recommand me ? Have you ever seen tapirs in the wild ? where ? when ? Tell me everything hahaha

I'm happy to be wrong! More video and announcement from earlier this month, of twin tapirs born at the Chimelong Safari Park in China

I don't know the story behind these baby lowland tapirs -- I suspect they aren't twins (very rare in tapirs) although they look similar in age. But they seem to be pretty happy together.

Bairds Tapir in the wild!!
These encounters were so incredible. Trekking through the dense jungle was so worth it when these adorable babies popped up everywhere. I saw 4 in total.

Happy to see this nice tapir here
One of our trail cams captured this Tapir, interés fact is that this same path is commonly used by pumas.
