World Tapir Day!

Posted on April 26, 2010

Shot with the Sony DSC-T500 at the San Francisco Zoo.

Flickr informed me that it was World Tapir Day, so I thought I’d give a little shout out to one of my favourite animals. Plus, I have this little vid that I took at the SF Zoo last year starring a very lovely and docile Tapir Goober!

Aside: I’d love to see a Tapir using an iPad. Now that’s a hit viral video in the making.
