EDITORS COMMENTS
This handcoloured lithograph, taken from Carl Hoffmann's "Book of the World" published in Stuttgart in 1857, depicts an intriguing scene of hunters in pursuit of the endangered tapir, Tapirus terrestris, in the lush jungles of South America. The tapir, a large, herbivorous mammal with a distinctive, prehistoric appearance, is shown wading in a river, its massive snout submerged in the water as it forages for food. The hunters, native to the region, are shown in a small river boat, their rifles at the ready as they carefully navigate the waterway in search of their quarry. The dense foliage of the jungle can be seen in the background, teeming with life and providing ample cover for the elusive tapir. The tapir is an endangered species, with populations declining due to habitat loss, poaching, and fragmentation. This image serves as a poignant reminder of the delicate balance between human needs and the preservation of the natural world. This educational picture, with its intricate details and vibrant colours, offers a glimpse into the past, transporting us back to a time when the natural world was still largely unexplored and the tapir was a prized target for hunters. Today, conservation efforts are underway to protect this magnificent creature and ensure its survival for future generations to marvel at.
