This is Ingo Behrmann of Germany with a lowland tapir; Ingo was on vacation in France. Obviously, the tapir loves to be scratched! Some tapirs have been known to climb over fences of this height.


All tapirs are endangered species.
Saving tapirs helps save the rainforest.


Ingo Behrmann's web site once featured Anja, the last mountain tapir in Europe (d. 1997). Now the site seems to have disappeared.
