Tapir je najprimitivnija vrsta kopitara. Smatra se autentičnim živim fosilom, zato što izgled nije mijenjao u posljednjih 35-40 miliona godina. Živi u šumi koja mu je uslovila izgled. Izgledom podsjeća na divlju svinju. Njuška mu je izdužena u pokretljivu surlu koju može uvući. Pomoću nje njuši i hrani se. Odličan je plivač. Kreće se uvijek istim putem.
