SYDNEY,
July 10 - Denise (L), a female Malayan
tapir, a recent arrival from Philadelphia
Zoo muzzles her way next to Berani, a
male tapir at Sydney's Taronga Zoo July
10, where its hoped the newly introduced
pair will breed as part of a conservation
program for this endangered species. The
gentle and shy tapirs, look like a cross
between a hippopotamus and a pig but are
actually more closely related to horses,
using their long and flexible snouts to
examine and smell the ground around them
to pluck leaves and draw them to their
mouths. - Reuter |
