About Mountain Tapir


The mountain tapir, also known as the Andean tapir or woolly tapir is the smallest of the four widely-recognized species of tapir. It is the only one to live outside of tropical rainforests in the wild. It is most easily distinguished from other tapirs by its thick woolly coat and white lips.
