Original Toronto Star caption: Rare tapir born. Looking like a watermelon with legs; a rare Malayan tapir was born in front of scores of enthralled zoo visitors at 1.30 p.m. yesterday. Zoo officials won't know for a week if it's a he or a she. It's the second for proud parents. Tommy and Tulip Tapir. Most zoo mothers wait till dark to give birth; but Tulip turned this birth into an afternoon spectacle.
