The Tapir Gallery

---

We want to thank and gratefully acknowledge those people who have linked to The Tapir Gallery. It takes time and effort to create thoughtful links, and we consider it a generous gift. We also believe that one of the most important things that "makes the Web go 'round" is the "Net" part of "Internet" - the interconnectedness that creates the community. Thanks again to all of you.   ~ Sheryl Todd

This group, based in Salzburg, Austria, studies immunoregulatory proteins. But guess what their mascot is? A very, very large protein indeed.

Brookfield Zoo: Zookeeper Kris's Resource Page
This page links to the Tapir Gallery and Tapir Specialist Group - and it includes a poem by two of our favorite tapir-people friends - Stefan Seitz and Kate Wilson. You can't go wrong! Brookfield Zoo has a link on this page to Brookfield's own tapir info in their "Fabulous Field Guide." This is a wonderful zoo, and we're thrilled to be included in their links! The zoo's main page is here.

This is Artzy's tapir page. It's in Dutch, but whether you speak Dutch or not, you'll recognize a familiar face!

DigiMorph
This is the place to go for tapir evolution! Dr. Matthew Colbert, tapir paleontologist, presents unique views and information on tapirs using digital scans. The site also shows foot and trunk construction, teeth, and phylogenetic history. This is cutting-edge scientific information on some of the lesser known characteristics of these under-studied animals. You will also find range maps and a concise general overview of tapirs.

Zoo in the Wild
Animals galore in a cyber-environment. Gives a nicely-identifying photo of the animal in the wild, and information, with a footprint and distribution map for each animal listed. The premise is that animals should not be caged, but they want you to be able to see them anyway.
