The tapirs are finished with polyester stuffing, and although they're soft, they will stand up. And because each knitted tapir is unique, they all come with an individualized identification card, complete with a studbook number. Brent also reminded us that because they're knitted, they're partially pliable. Click on pictures below to enlarge. We wanted to show close-ups of all the tapirs, but the colors are more accurate in the group photo at the top of the page.
All tapirs are endangered species.
Saving tapirs helps save the rainforest.
