Much has happened over the past six months. First of all, I would like to tell you that the TSG has a new logo – you can see it below and on the cover page of this newsletter! Gilia Angell, an experienced web/graphics designer who works for Amazon.com in Seattle, United States, supported by Kelly Russo, communications specialist of the Houston Zoo, worked together to create the logo. The development of the logo involved an exhausting process of working on many different designs based on the feedback from TSG members until we reached a final design that seemed to appeal to everyone. For that, I am extremely thankful to both Gilia and Kelly! After we were done with the logo, Gilia volunteered to help us with the design of the new TSG web site and she is once again relying on the group’s feedback and support to create the site. The domain (www.tapirspecialistgroup.org) has already been purchased and the site is up, although only a few links are currently working. We still need a few months to have all the information available on the site. Any suggestions, comments, criticisms etc. will always be more than welcome! We strongly believe that this new site will be an excellent tool to promote the work of the TSG, to publicise tapir conservation initiatives and projects and to raise funds for tapir conservation. On another note, Kelly Russo and Alberto Mendoza, Community Programmes Coordinator of the Houston Zoo, continue to work on the development of tapir and TSG brochures! Thank you, Gilia, Kelly and Alberto!!!
