Got a little kick out of addressing this envelope to the "Hooves and Carnivore Team" at the Twycross Zoo in England (winners of my Paper Tapir Challenge). If I weren't working diligently in a one-woman art dept, I'd definitely want a desk next to those fine folks...
We loved the envelope and are keeping it along with the book! Thanks again.

Hooray! So glad you received the package, and that you love the work - I hope you'll take some time to read to the tapirs! :) Cheers!

That's a very nice illustration of Baird's Tapir. I saw one recently at the San Diego Zoo in their Elephant Odyssey exhibit. This exhibit compares a variety of living animals to extinct ones. They gave a comparison of Baird's Tapir with an extinct California Tapir. I recommend it if you get out to San Diego; I also posted a summary: http://paleo-tourist.typepad.com/the-paleo-tourist/2012/02/elephant-odyssey-in-san-diego.html.

Thank you Dave! And your post is extremely timely - I'm headed to the San Diego Zoo next month! I'm making lots of room for drawing supplies in my suitcase - I haven't been to that Zoo since I was pretty little, and I'm very excited to see it all again. Thanks also for the link to your blog - what wonderful content!
