Like father, like daughter! On this #TapirTWOsday, we can’t help but laugh at how our Malayan tapir dad ‘Tanuck’ and his female calf share the same hay-eating strategy! 🌿 😂

While Malayan tapirs are solitary in the wild, mothers and calves stick together, and first-time dad Tanuck hasn’t met his little one yet as she is behind-the-scenes with mom ‘Sempurna’. We’ll be sure to share updates if their paths cross in the future! 🤍 🖤

Stay tuned for updates on our #WatermelonBabyYYC! 🍉
