When uploading photos there is a little icon that can be clicked to allow the individual to shift a photo to its proper location, therefore not posting the photo on its side.

They still have Tapirs near the back of the zoo next to the anteater exhibit.

John Ball zoo in michigan has a Brazilian Tapir the type of tapir Detriot has. Im wondering if they transfered there tapir to this zoo. Cause when me and my gf went up to detroit zoo that same day you guys did, i remember seeing the giant anteater exhibit. they also had a Binturong exhibit,Matschie's Tree Kangaroo Exhibit,2 seperate Wolverine Exhibits,Pudu Exhibit & Bush Dog Exhibit. I never saw a sign for Brazilian Tapir unless they are in the big yard off to the left with capybara & Guanacos but i never saw a sign for them either. idk

Being it was pretty cold that day we never thought anything about not seeing one out however its entirely possible that they indeed moved their tapirs.

John Ball has had our tapir for years now. I don't remember hearing stuff about him coming from Detroit though.
