Introducing the cutest thing you’ll see today: a baby tapir. Would you believe us if we told you this little guy will grow up to weigh around 300 kilos, or 661 pounds? These forest-dwelling mammals are actually the largest land mammals in South America, and they look like a mix between a wild boar and an anteater. Unfortunately, tapirs are facing extinction due to hunting and deforestation. That’s why @TEDFellow Patricia Medici fights to protect them. “Tapirs are sadly misjudged as stupid and not worthy of saving,” she says. “While many people think of them like a donkey, I prefer to compare tapirs with jaguars – they’re powerful and majestic. That’s something I’m working hard to change as I think greater recognition will help conservation efforts.” To learn more, visit go.ted.com/babytapir
