DescriptionGetting a shot is no fun for a baby - even when that baby is an infant tapir, and the procedure for giving the shot is a little sneakier! Young tapir at Phoenix Zoo didn't like it a bit when it got the pointed end of the long "needle" being wielded by zoo veterinarian Dr. Howell Hood (on wall at extreme right), of Tempe.
The film negative of this photograph is housed in box 2G7-C.
