Species Specific Enrichment Ideas

Species: Malayan tapir

Integrating natural history, the unique individuals, and exhibit design allows us to create a list of desired behaviors:

  • Foraging
  • Trunk use
  • Sensory – olfactory
  • Investigation

These behaviors may be encouraged through permanent exhibit structures, rotating items, social opportunities, interactions with keepers and more.
