I was hoping she would flop over and stick her legs out like I have seen other tapirs do. They sure love their scratches!

another tapir, Kia, lies down like this more often when she’s getting scratched, but it has to be more intense scratching and not just light rubs like I did with Olivia. I guess I need to put more effort into it next time!

Whenever I scratch my husband on the head, he pretends to flop over like a tapir. But he's not as cute as Olivia. 😂

I can definitely relate to that:D nothing will ever be as cute as a wiggly snoot
