leaves, buds, fruit and small branches
There are four tapir species, and their latin names are as follows: * Baird's Tapir, Tapirus bairdii * Malayan Tapir, Tapirus indicus * Mountain Tapir, Tapirus pinchaque * Brazilian Tapir (also called Lowland Tapir), Tapirus terrestris But different species can actually breed with each other in zoos etc. to produce hybrids. The baby hybrids are then called whatever the zoo staff want to call them.
No, but the Brazilian tapir was the largest NATIVE MAMMAL OF THE AMAZON until the introduction of horses, cattle, and oxen.
long grass works for me

There are five extant tapir species and a number of extinct species: * Baird's Tapir, Tapirus bairdii * Malayan Tapir, Tapirus indicus * Mountain Tapir, Tapirus pinchaque * Brazilian Tapir (also called Lowland Tapir), Tapirus terrestris * Black Dwarf Lowland Tapir, Tapirus pygmaeus[1] * Tapirus polkensis †* Tapirus merriami †* Tapirus veroensis †* Tapirus copei†* Tapirus californicus †Hybrid tapirs from the Baird's Tapir and the Brazilian Tapir were bred at the San Francisco Zoo around 1969 and produced a second generation around 1970.
Glad that you asked.....A tapir is an omnivore and almost everybody thinks that it's a vegetarian. But one day my friend Jeremy and I went to the Amazon Rainforest in South America and we saw a tapir hunting for several baby toucans and ate some plants so a tapir is an omnivore. So back to the question, the tapir consists a diet of berries, leaves and fruit but a tapir also eats baby toucans, banded rattlesnakes and some tapirs, fish hope this helped and I am not lying because My friend Jeremy and I actually saw a baby toucan being eaten by a tapir if you want the specific tapir type its the Brazilian Tapir HOPED THIS HELPED!
Brazilian tapir live in Brazil. Unless they have moved away from, or been forcibly removed from Brazil, in which case they could be living pretty much anywhere.
