Tapirs are herbivores that feed up on water plants, fruits and buds. These mammals will also eat twigs and leaves. They use their long snouts to forage along the ground in search of food. Tapirs have been known to consume up to 40 kilograms (85 pounds) of vegetation in one day.
The family tree (below) is not fully resolved; while the American tapirs would logically group together (as shown here), some genetic studies have clustered the Baird's tapir (Tapirus bairdii) next to the Asian tapir (Tapirus indicus), away from the other two American species.apirs are forest animals and feed on softer vegetation-they have not developed the cursorial adaptations of the equids, nor the high-crowned teeth for grazing on grass. Infant tapirs possess a striking pattern of white stripes and spots over their bodies, providing camouflage for their first 5-8 months.
