EDITORS COMMENTS
In this portrait, a six-day-old Malayan tapir (Tapirus indicus) gazes directly at the camera with its curious, inquisitive eyes. This rare and endangered species, listed as both critically endangered by the International Union for Conservation of Nature (IUCN) and federally endangered in the United States, is captured in a full-length, side view against a pristine white background at the Minnesota Zoo. The Malayan tapir, a large, elusive mammal native to the forests of Southeast Asia, is characterized by its distinctive, dark, circular spots on a lighter background, which provide excellent camouflage in its natural habitat. In this studio shot, the tapir's intricate, textured skin and unique markings are on full display, revealing the exquisite details of this remarkable animal. The Malayan tapir is one of the four tapir species found in the world, and its population is under threat due to habitat loss, poaching, and fragmentation. This image serves as a poignant reminder of the importance of conservation efforts to protect this vulnerable species and preserve biodiversity. This portrait, taken by renowned wildlife photographer Joel Sartore, invites viewers to connect with the young tapir and appreciate its beauty and uniqueness. The horizontal color image, set against a clean, uncluttered background, offers ample space for creative design applications, making it an excellent choice for animal-themed projects, educational materials, or any context that seeks to celebrate the diversity of the natural world.
