South American Tapir, Anta - Tapirus terrestris (male)
A vulnerable species--we saw at least two on this trip, and they were only a little wary. This one seemed accustomed to people taking photos from near the pond. As it sauntered out of the pond and into the woods, I kept hearing Henry Mancini's "Baby Elephant Walk" from the 1962 movie Hatari.
Adoro cachorros, porém, cachorros vira-latas soltos no Parque Ambiental fazem um grande estrago
Esses estavam correndo atrás de uma Anta (animal vulnerável

A ANTA é o maior mamífero terrestre do Brasil, está listada como VULNERÁVEL.
Esse é meu único registro que tenho desse lindo animal, que dá nome a esse local
A Anta estava em fuga, perseguida por cachorros...
The tapir was on the run, chased by dogs...
She managed to escape, but her cub did not.
Sadly, small animals and birds have suffered from persecution by dogs that are abandoned in the environmental park.
These dogs are natural hunters and are becoming a serious problem in the Brasília Mineral Water National Park.
