Tapir \Ta"pir\, n. [Braz. tapy'ra: cf. F. tapir.] (Zool.)
   Any one of several species of large odd-toed ungulates
   belonging to Tapirus, Elasmognathus, and allied genera.
   They have a long prehensile upper lip, short ears, short and
   stout legs, a short, thick tail, and short, close hair. They
   have three toes on the hind feet, and four toes on the fore
   feet, but the outermost toe is of little use.

   Note: The best-known species are the Indian tapir (Tapirus
         Indicus), native of the East Indies and Malacca, which
         is black with a broad band of white around the middle,
         and the common American tapir (Tapirus Americanus),
         which, when adult, is dull brown. Several others
