We've had otterday, caturday, and even otteruary, but it's time to mix it up introduce tapir Tuesday! Tapirs may be pretty fucking odd looking, but they're not without their charm.

the coat is rather handsome

    Some girl that worked at a zoo had her arm torn off by a tapir

    It's hard to look at them the same way again

    Ship: Of all the zoos we've been to today, I like this one the best. Bender, which is your favourite nocturnal rat?
    Bender: Eh, they're all pretty unimpressive.
    Ship: Oh, honey, look! The tapirs! It says here the babies lose their pyjama-like coat after their first year. Isn't that interesting, honey?
    Bender: Yep. Mind-numbingly interesting.

    I don't know why we don't just call them something that reflects the fact that they look like the bastard child of a pig and an elephant. Like a hogaphant.

    Tapirs are generally shy, but when they are scared they can defend themselves with their very powerful jaws. In 1998, a zookeeper in Oklahoma City was mauled and had an arm severed by a tapir bite, after she attempted to feed the attacking tapir's young.[28] In 2006, a 46-year-old man (who was the Environmental Minister at the time) who was lost in the Corcovado National Park at Costa Rica was found by a search party with a "nasty bite" from a wild tapir.[29] However, such examples are rare; for the most part, tapirs are likely to avoid confrontation in favor of running from predators, hiding, or, if possible, submerging themselves in nearby water until a threat is gone.[30]

    Lady goes to feed the tapir.

    Opens the gate thing.

    Tapir hauls off and bites the lady's fucking arm off.

    Arm could not be reattached.

    I'm sure it had a good topic, I mean, worth1000 usually churns out good stuff.

    But out of context, its a weird shop is all.

    I'm afraid that in light of these recent revalations, I am forced to change my stance to one of staunch anti-tapirism until such a time as this swelling in tapir-on-human violence can be quelled and an apology and formal reparations are made to the human race by tapirkind.
