How amazing to be what we are, animals that love to pet, in a world of animals that love to be petted. So much trust and respect on display here, intense care for the well being of another species. I had no idea tapirs were so big, and so sociable! What a precious insight into the animals of the last ice age.
The enrichment in this park is beyond par! From the walrus firehouse toy for the polar bears to the ‘snuffle box’ and lick boards for these lucky tapirs, it’s an incredible inspiration for all keepers! Amazing staff work
I love how they flop over when they're enjoying a good scratch! Interesting that they seem to do that in the wild too (when being groomed by birds like caracaras).
Tapirs do eat a lot of fruit and tree branches! 🌿🍎 But they’re not related to anteaters and don’t eat ants; they're more closely related to horses and rhinos. 🐴🦏

George has completely won my heart over. I think I may b his #1 fan beside his keepers ❤ such a big sweet heart who loves his sissy
