What is a tapirs role in its habitat?
Tapirs play a vital role in their habitat as seed dispersers. They help maintain the diversity and health of the forest by consuming fruits and spreading seeds across various locations while defecating. Additionally, tapirs play a role in shaping vegetation structure through their feeding habits, which can have cascading effects on other species in the ecosystem.
What type of habitat do tapirs need?
Tapirs require a habitat that includes dense tropical or subtropical forests, wetlands, and grasslands. They thrive in areas with abundant vegetation for cover and foraging, as they are herbivorous and consume leaves, fruits, and aquatic plants. Proximity to water sources is also essential, as tapirs are strong swimmers and often take to water to escape predators or cool off. Their habitat needs to remain relatively undisturbed to support their survival and reproductive success.
