  1. I had no idea there were so many books about tapirs! My boys and I learned about them a long time ago on an episode of Go Diego Go and were thrilled to find a few of them at our zoo a few years ago. They have since had babies and we’ve gotten to hear their little sounds and watch how they grow and change. Pinned.
