While poking around cyberspace today, I ran into an organization whose mission overlaps with New Order Mormon: the Tapir Specialist Group.

Consider supporting this organization in its efforts to save this majestic, possibly ride-able denizen of our tropical world.The Tapir Specialist Group, a unit of the IUCN Species Survival Commission, strives to conserve biological diversity by stimulating, developing, and executing practical programs to study, save, restore, and manage the four species of tapir and their remaining habitats in Central and South America and Southeast Asia. Our strategies:
a.) Frequent review, status determination, and publicizing of tapirs and their needs;
b.) Promoting and supporting research, and distributing materials;
c.) Promoting the implementation of conservation and management programs by appropriate organizations and governments; and,
d.) Establishing strong and effective relationships among tapir conservationists to stimulate communication and cooperation.
