Resumen

El tapir de tierras bajas (Tapirus terrestris), catalogado como vulnerable en la Lista Roja de la UICN (2009) y clasificado en la sección II por la CITES (2009), es escaso en muchas regiones de Brasil. Si bien esta especie no está incluida en la lista de especies amenazadas del IBAMA, figura en seis de las siete listas estatales brasileñas de animales en peligro de extinción. Esta situación se debe principalmente a la pérdida de hábitat y la caza furtiva (UICN, 2009). Dado que el tapir de tierras bajas puede considerarse una especie clave debido a su función de dispersor de semillas, su desaparición de un ecosistema forestal podría tener un impacto sustancial en la dinámica de reclutamiento de algunas especies vegetales.
