May 2022- Baird’s tapir

Taken May 21st, 2022. Sighted at Braulio Carrillo National Park, appeared out of the blue.
There's a couple of tapirs living in that area, I saw them there as well, although those didn't venture out in the open like this.
 
@ralph Yeah, this one appeared near an adventure park we visited. One of guides noted a tapir was nursed to health around the area not too long ago, and either that individual or its calf is the animal pictured here.
 
I think I saw the same individual back in 2017. It saw a female with an already quite grown-up youngster. This tapir could be any of those 2.
