Tom, the Puente al Sur Animal Keeper gives us a close look at our two new Mountain Tapirs (Tapirus pinchaque), "Howard" and "Maggie." These two Tapirs were named by Michael Tilson Thomas, the Music Director of the San Francisco Symphony (a special song, written and performed by Michael Tilson Thomas is featured at the end).

    i never thought a tapir would do that.

    One time at a children farm a pig bit the finger of a small girl i don't know if she lost her finger

    At the very start of the video it sure sounds like that you say "you're gonnna get a curry comb".

    In my opinion you should. I reguarly brush my girlfriend's gelding with a rubber curry comb and he absolutely loves it.

    Often the horse in question will really stretch out his neck and do some amazing lip curling expressions on his face.

    I do believe that he is actually saying "Oh yeah...that's the spot which is really itchy and many many thanks for the blissful scratch.
