A Tapir relaxing unconcerned about my presence.

P.S. I removed my earlier post called "Up Above" because there was a major defect in it. Thanks to Sandi for pointing it out and also thanks to those who had already commented on it.

Raj, think I've confused certain things because I thought that tapirs are feeding themselves with ants, but see now, by checking-out your link that they are feeding themselves with soft vegetation.
Think however that its 'dinner' is served, lol.

Very nice capture again.

Think he's been munching quite a bit Raj - an excellent capture of an animal I don't see often.

I can honestly say I don't remember ever seeing one of these in person at a zoo. Good capture of him/her just taking it easy.

The tapir looks to be deep in thought about something other than you, Raj. Excellent capture.

This animal is unique to me - I have never heard of or met one. You've got a great photo here, Raj.
