The coolest animal on the planet might just be one you’ve never seen — and it’s ENDANGERED. Without proper conservation, we might lose tapirs forever. Will you help ensure they don’t disappear unseen?
The tapir’s unique appearance often causes people to think it might be related to elephants or anteaters or capybaras. But it’s none of those things. In fact, they are actually more related to horses and rhinoceros. Perhaps what they are most of all, though, are essential to our planet.
But today it’s harder for them to be that anymore, their survival jeopardized by our actions, threatening the existence of the biodiversity it helps shape.
What’s the best way to save tapirs?
Promote sustainable land use. Sustainable land use helps maintain connectivity between tapir populations and preserves critical corridors for their movement.
