What in the World is a Tapir?

[grande1899]

Where's the most interesting fact, that they have the largest penis to body size ratio?

[avalanchesuperstar]

It's cool because they were around in the ice age snf they were the exact same back then. Same thing with polar bears and sloths.

[LizaXenzova]

Fact number 9, their noses aren't the only things that are flexible...cough.

Ahaha. Look at the mating videos XD

[luli1232]

naaa,esta en ingles

[JAKECROCKETT7]

@sianna7myheartisdyin WAIT! does that mean you live in spokane washington!!!??? because i know a kid with the last name baird and that must mean its named after his family too!!!

[FR3DKRU3G3R]

One of my favorite animals. :D

[baalhaophanim]

Read the beautiful story The Tapir by Manuel Mujica Láinez, a story from the book "Misteriosa Buenos Aires"

[salman4614]

also try Zebra + Giraffe = OKAPI ! ! !

[salman4614]

Elephant + Pig = TAPIR ! ! !

[WeLiveToComment]

It's Drowzee and I will catch one.

[Rubystars1000]

I got really mad when people at the zoo kept calling the tapir a pig lol

[GreenerHill]

@Rubystars1000 That always happens! "Some sort of pig," people say. Tell them it's closer to a horse, and they just look confused. :)

[leaderofsithclan]

tupir have the largest body to penis ratio

[theweasel80]

it is a numa

[bigfatpatricia]

I LUV TAPIRS

[MrThePandaman]

[Astrostevo]

World tapir day today (27th April 2011 Aussie timezone) .. classic! ;-)

[TheMatiiVlogs]

MY DICK IS BIGGER :D.

[QuetzalElla]

oh no! save the tapirs!

[cninja87]

F***  the constatnt ads.

[ustadbadoo]

oh so sweet, tapirs is cute.

[Gallowghoul]

no fair, how come only Europeans get to name animals. it's not like they're the first one to discover these things :p

[thedancer847]

I saw one at Disney World!! They are so cute(:

[dtiydr]

Looks like something mix between a elephant, pony and a pig

[subme4freesubs]

tapirs are the best creatures ever!

[gobbychard]

cool creature but that floppy thing hanging off its face is ridiculous. im sorry but i couldnt deal with what resembles a sea-cubumber hanging off my face...

[bbphnix]

horses and rinoceroses are related? news to me....

although I guess the hyracotheryum does look similar to all three....

[jasonpp1973]

Are'nt these animals in "2001 A Space Odyssey"?

[rogerpenna]

@jasonpp1973

yes, they are. They only exist in S.America (Brazilian Tapir and Mountain Tapir), Central America (Baird´s Tapir) and Southeast Asia (Malaysian Tapir). So I dont know if they existed in Africa 4 million years ago (I suppose its australopithecus in 2001?)

According to Wikipedia, Tapirs were chosen for 2001 based ONLY in their appearance, since there are no records of Tapirs in Africa.

[Mafiacowz]

The RHINO HORSE! Run for your lives!

[MOBProduktion]

Synd att jag inte har något badkar, annars hade jag gärna tagit hand om en!

[nils426]

[IndependentEsse]

Spuzmocker, the tapir, the one who whacked Hitler. He's after me.

[helmeester]

tapirs are the most awesome creatures on this planet

[MikaMute]

Tapir is tha shit !

[frauNookie]

i saw a tapir in the Moscow zoo just today, he was soooooooooo adorable i just fell in love with this animal!!! But the bad thing was that he had a running sore behind his ear, and now i'm thinking about it all the time =(((((

i want to help him somehow, i think i'm gonna subscribe

[dodgydogman]

Because that will help it...

[soledadjujuy]

[Zeanu]

[darinsproductions]

[MihaZ]

They forgot the shotgun nose.

[NaturalPsycho]

Tapirs are so adorable!

<3

[keriah17]

[lfantasy13bro]

[sianna7myheartisdyin]

[omg1a1kitten]

[HoLOLcaust]

@sianna7myheartisdyin You die in Gears 3.

[lothlorien1is1heaven]

@sianna7myheartisdyin Only kiwis are better... (the bird)

[olgapate94]

they are 4 diferent species of tapires. one of them lives in malasya, the other are found on south america and 1 in central america.

[florecitarockera1979]

amo a los tapires aunque desconozco su forma de reproduccion

[tblanl]

I love. the nose.

[OutwardFrontier]

this animal can be found in Malaysia... As a protected species

[xraycat30]

anyone know if they eat tapir?

[skipqtexas]

I thought it was a bore hog

[assfaceg]

i head they have huge dicks

[RicardoFloresMagon]

wild donkeys!

[yellowman88]

its gots a huge penis too

[crippledbandit2]

they forgot the most important fact: they have proportionally the longest penis of all animals.

THAT is why they haven't become extinct, the female tapir's are wicked horny for dick, keeping the population of the species up.

[lovemachine6969]

LOL

[r1ng30wn3rz]

lmfao lol,funny..is it true?

[1021Princess92]

Tapirs are love. <3

[rsuriyop]

a platypus is far more stranger than this. although classified as 'mammal,' it probably shouldn't be grouped with anything at all.

[jonnyNtmo]

its related to rhinos

[winterstellar]

Yeah! Science and the real world and shit stinks, doesn't it? In the real world our species have been here 150 000-200 000 years, and before that our ancestors were other more primitive species. The Bible is much funnier than reality, no? Ha ha..

[Nesty29]

Retard.

Watch Animal Planet.

[fartfactory28]

that's just bad humor , it just looks like it . a lot like it .

[fartfactory28]

i bet those are popular with the ladies .

[SPACEDMADNESS42]

14 toes, that's weird

[DRiPPz6800]

how would we know if its a new spices??

[tunnelneverends]

this animal reminds me of food, time for a cook out and the tapir is the star of the party

[Hammersley1967]

I once ripped a Tapir's cock off and ate it raw...

It was the most courageous thing that I have ever done...

[kotk05]

Oh no! We missed out on the Dodo, I hope the same thing doesn't happen to this rhinohorse.

[khajiit81]

what is a tapir

[spittingupblood]

SAVE THE TAPIR!

[mastud]

National Geog....please have a beginning and an end to your videos. Stop cutting it off right in the middle.

[whatsocute]

Don't let them go extinct.

[insanepeng]

of course it's the humans fault! since when did the narrator says it's because ants keep taking their food

[intravenousradio]

the narrator says that Belize is between mexico and guatemala. that is not really true. Belize is on the carribean coast and has a border with guatemala and mexico. but it is not in between those two countries.

[shiboof]

Lived there, yes it is....guatelamala surrounds BZ to the west and south...mexico to the north. Reporter was right on.

[JonasBrothersFan77KJ]

...

[jaitanujcom]

true

[betta144]

save those animals

[critbone]

HUGE DICK

[TacoLuvr]

Re: The ending quote, If there are an unknown number of species yet to be discovered, then how do we know there are any?

[Moldycheese4me]

They are referring to rain forest animals, this includes insects. There are too many loggers far too little scientists to discover all of the species. I was watching this show and the scientists discovered a new breed of rat in the forest.

[TacoLuvr]

Moldycheese4me, But I still have the same question. How do we know there are still species that not yet been discovered? Every time someone finds a new species, that might be the last one to be discovered. Thinking there are still more of them is just a guess.

[thylocene0606]

acctually a new species is discoverd about every 5 seconds. so its not really a guess.

[TacoLuvr]

thylocene0606, I hadn't heard that. But let's assume that your statement is correct. My point is still valid. Any new species that is found could be the last new one ever found. And the idea that there are still more undiscovered species is an assumption. Do you see the simple logic in that?

[Moldycheese4me]

If a tree falls and no one hears it, does it make a sound?

[TacoLuvr]

If a moron named Moldycheese4me posts an idiotic comment on YouTube, does anyone read it? Apparently yes. But it turns out to be a waste of time because he is such a total shit-for-brains.

[Moldycheese4me]

I wasn't making a fucking joke you nasty little shit.

[SAMLAD2k6]

Lmao he posted an amazing metafore from a metafore. AMAZING! btw the tree would exist because the tree its self exists when you said it existed before saying if nobody knows it exists you wouldn't be saying it exists in the first place, thank you professor.

[KiloriloFFXI]

why the fuck wouldn't it ? One of the most retarded quotes/sayings in history.

[Moldycheese4me]

"sound is the variation of pressure that propagates through matter as a wave"

Perhaps the most important topic the riddle offers is the division between perception of an object and how an object really is. If the tree exists outside of perception (as common sense would dictate), then it will produce sound waves. However, these sound waves will not actually sound like anything. Sound as it is mechanically understood will occur, but sound as it is understood by sensation will not occur.

[symbiote35]

If Moldycheese4me posts a joke, and nobody cares, does anyone care about it?

[Moldycheese4me]

It is a philosophical riddle that raises questions regarding observation and knowledge of reality. Can something exist without being perceived? The most immediate philosophical topic that the riddle introduces involves the existence of the tree (and its sound) outside of human perception. If no one is around to see, hear, touch or smell the tree, how could its existence occur? What is it to say that it exists when such an existence avoids all knowing?

[guest58]

TAP1R 1S T3H SH1T

[o7jimmy]

Cool.

[Blakblastoise]

He forgot to say that they taste delicious.

[inhuman216]

All aboard the fail boat!

[mGoLos]

"What is a Tapir?"

It is the mammal with the greatest penis-to-body ratio in the natural kingdom ... yep, the tapir is better than you ;)

[dafttool]

Nice statistic. But man's penis-to-body ratio is still the greatest among the primates, even beating out gorillas. *thumps chest* :)

[shaolindreams]

comparing penises sizes animals.. someone feels insecure ;)

[dafttool]

You should talk about your issues with a therapist. I'm still busy thumping my chest with pride. :)

[shaolindreams]

Sorry but my therapist has an important patient hes working on. Your Therapist.

[dafttool]

It took you 3 weeks to come up with that?! hehe

[LittlPussi]

@mGoLos But somehow I still wouldn't want to be Tapir. Big tool or not.

[DrMattDestruction]

so what if you can't spell you're right, faggot.

[Mafiacowz]

@liveinmymusic Lol Like it or not calling something gay is now not always referring to a homosexual. Hell I say "lol thats gay" and my sister is gay. Hell! She says it lol

[cydwest]

Typical youtube fair. It's not worth the two seconds of typing a response.

[msp1212]

First!
