Malayan Tapir was born in Preservation and Research Center, City of Yokohama for the first time in 16 years!

Malayan Tapir was born in Preservation and Research Center, City of Yokohama on Monday, January 22, 2024.
Since its birth, the severe cold has continued, and we have been breeding indoors to stabilize the child's physical condition, and further strengthening indoor heating to watch the child grow safely.
Currently, more than two weeks have passed since birth, but both mother and child are healthy.
The body color after birth is different from the parent, but about one year later, it will be the same black and white two-tone color as the parent.
The Yokohama City Zoo will be born in Malayan Tapir for the first time in two years since 2022, and Preservation and Research Center, City of Yokohama will be born in Malayan Tapir for the first time in 16 years since 2008.
