The bizarre animal that hasn’t changed since the Ice Age is now on the brink of extinction.

The Brazilian native Tapir resembles a pig with short legs and a sturdy body, but it’s actually a cousin of horses.

But its most distinctive feature is its sweet, short trunk. Although this trunk isn’t as functional as an elephant’s, it’s flexible enough to grab what it wants. Moreover, thanks to the remarkable structure of this trunk, they can close it like a valve underwater, allowing them to move around as they please because tapirs love water as much as they love land. Baby tapirs are born with stripes and spots, but they lose them all by the time they reach adulthood. Besides their cute appearance, these extremely friendly animals love to play and be petted, just like dogs.
