Description: Fact sheet from EDGE, a conservation organization that focuses specifically on threatened species that represent a significant amount of unique evolutionary history.
EDGE :: Mammal Species Information Baird’s tapir is the largest indigenous mammal in Central America. It is a primitive animal that resembles the ancestor of rhinos and horses, and has changed very little in the last 35 million years. Characterised by a long, fleshy nose, like a shortened version of an elephant’s trunk, this shy quiet mammal lives in tropical forests and grasslands and is rarely seen. The species is currently declining as a result of habitat destruction and hunting. Its low reproductive rate makes it even more vulnerable to these threats.
