Baby Tapir - too cute!

It's sobering to think that, once he's fully grown, that baby tapir will be charging into battle with a Lamanite on his back.

Nah, it's faith promoting.

Well, Ludwig, you were the one who was posting pictures that were offensive to the more sexually inhibited members of the board. You brought the consequences on yourself. :rolleyes:

A very cute little tapir. Looks almost cuddly.

I had no idea tapirs had a prehensiled snout. There is a video at the link and the little guy is moving is nose all over the place!

Tapirs are related to horses and rhinos. So "horses" in the Old Testament are rhinos and "horses" in the Book of Mormon are tapirs. Brilliant logic, I know. thank you. thank you.

Ludwigm...maybe if you post pictures of babies instead of babes...
