DESCRIPTION:

World Tapir Day raises awareness of the species of tapir that inhabit Central and South America and Southeast Asia. One of its objectives is to raise funds to purchase land to protect the animal's habitat from human encroachment.

Tapirs are large herbivorous mammals native to the jungle and forest regions of South America, Central America, and Southeast Asia. As large herbivores, tapirs are invariably the first species affected by human encroachment and amongst the last to return to regrowth forests. They require substantial tracts of undisturbed land to maintain a genetically-diverse population. Tapirs are threatened by human activity, including mining, palm oil plantations, roads, and settlements. They form an essential part of the ecosystem as seed dispersers and are one of the oldest surviving species in the animal kingdom.

All tapirs are endangered species. Saving tapirs helps to protect the rainforest. Saving rainforests helps to save the planet and prevent climate change.
