Nice! Thanks Elisa. Booking a plane ticket NOW.

by:// Kelly Reeves - Jan 2nd 2009

wow i can't believe i recognized the tapir! I've never seen a capybara before either so that was my second guess.

by:// ginny - Feb 6th 2009

uh, well,uh, what???????? Cute wouldn't wanna pet it.

by:// tina - Jan 5th 2009

I used to eat these animals in Brazil
as a pet they didn't last long enough for me

by:// High-tech Indian - Jan 6th 2009

THIS ANIMAL IS A TAPIER AND IS ON OF THE NATIONAL ANIMALS OF BELIZE IN CENTRAL AMERICA. WOW!!!HOW CURTE, YOU SHOULD VISIT THE BELIZE ZOO SOMETIMES AND SEE HOW FREELY THE ANINALS LIVE.

by:// KMAPQ - Jan 6th 2009

It's probably a baby whatever the bigger one is,which I think they"re called okapis. But I don't really know though!

by:// JOSH LANG - Jan 7th 2009

its a tapir they are a mammal and are only found in south America in the rainforest. They are related to Capybara.

by:// BillabongBabe - Jan 8th 2009

Both are tapirs--one's a baby and the other an adult, probably the mama.

by:// Janet - Jan 8th 2009

wow a tapir never seen that before. of course im being sarcastic

by:// alisha - Jan 8th 2009

Wow, a sarcastic comment, never seen that before. Of course I'm being sarcastic. LOLZ. I'm just jking with you Alisha. Seriously though, are there any animals you haven't seen before? Let me know and I'll post some pics.

by:// Jordan - Jan 8th 2009

they also live in the rainforests of Central America. My husband (100% Maya) says they're delicious, like pork but very lean. The spots are so the baby blends into the mottled leaf litter of the rainforest. Tapirs are very shy, and don't have many defenses, so even if you went to the rainforest, you probably wouldn't see one... but isn't it just the cutest wittle fing ever?!?!?!?

by:// Laura - Jan 8th 2009

looks like a watermelon with legs making fun of jimmy durante

by:// jack - Jan 8th 2009

Tapirs and Capybaras aren't related at all... Capibaras are rodents (the largest ones, in fact), while Tapirs are more closely related to horses and rhinos.

by:// alex - Jan 11th 2009

It's pre-historic.
