Baird's Tapir Tapirus bairdii Palm Oil Detectives

Baird’s tapirs may look like they are relatives of elephants, but they're actually closer kin to horses, donkeys, zebras, and rhinoceroses. Also known as the Central American tapir, they are the largest land mammals in Central America and a living relic of an ancient lineage. Their robust, stocky bodies and distinctive trunk-like snout make them unique among mammals. However, they are now Endangered, with fewer than 5,000 individuals left in the wild. Tragically, palm oil, soy and meat deforest

Japan has almost 9,000 active registered racehorses at tracks around the country. But after their competitive careers are done, only a lucky few end up at places like TCC Therapy Park, where second careers await. https://www.japantimes.co.jp/life/2026/08/08/lifestyle/horse-racing-retired-therapy-animal-welfare/?utm_medium=Social&utm_source=mastodon #life #lifestyle #horseracing #japanracingassociation #horses #animalwelfare

Hey everyone— I’m packing now for the “main event” here in Colorado. Tomorrow I’ll start on a 5-day, 4-night horsepack trip. We will be traversing across a mountain range, which includes going up and over a pass at 12,000 ft (3,700 m). This is a “progressive” trip in which we break down camp each day, ride, then set up camp at the next spot, just like backpacking (no base camp). Using all of my backpacking gear! I’ll be off the grid the entire time— see you on the other side! #Colorado #horses

Just now got back from my 5-day horsepack trip. We did a traverse across a mountain range in the Colorado Rockies which included going up and over a pass. Camped in three different locations. Had a blast! More pics to come! #Colorado #mountains #horses#hiking #nature #photography #NaturePhotography #LandscapePhotography

Happy #MountainMonday! This is a peak that dominated my horsepack trip last week— both logistically and aesthetically. From the beginning of the trip, its presence and beauty dominated the view. On Day 2, we traveled along its base up and over a pass. While camping at the base on the far side of the peak, I hiked up above the treeline to take this pic. I love this mountain! #Colorado #hiking #mountains#nature #photography #landscape #NaturePhotography #LandscapePhotography #horses
