Newborn Tapir Draws Attention Behind Closed Gates
A Tapirus indicus mother is accompanied by her calf, which is born seven days ago, at Bandung Zoo in West Java, Indonesia. The zookeeper continues to provide intensive care despite the zoo being ordered closed for three months by the city government due to internal management issues that reportedly endanger the health and welfare of its 710 animals. Staff members work to ensure animal care continues even while public operations are suspended. (Photo by Ardi Septian/NurPhoto)
