Description This Malaysian Tapir reminded me of the Pokémon Drowzee in a tuxedo.    Some lady was telling her daughter it was a pig   This was at the Lied Jungle at Omaha's Henry Doorly Zoo and Aquarium.

The reason why I don't go to the ZOO as often as I would like to (aside from peeping people when I draw) are all the comments within the theme "Some lady was telling her daughter it was a pig".
It hurts me inside

Tapir!!!! Tapirs are so cool!!! I wouldn't be surprised if that's where they got the idea for Drowzee. 

Uh...pig?! Really?

Nice, it looks cute!

Have you seen "True Facts About The Tapir" by ZeFrank on YouTube? If, not, I recommend it, it's funny.

Am I weird to think these are some of the cutest animals out there lol.

And yeah, ive gone to the zoo a lot and have palmfaced quit frequently. Once a lady asked if a lion was trained, if it at cookies, if it could live in 'x' amount of space, and if they made good pets to one of the keepers. The whole group kinda just looked at her. Not an old lady either, but a younger lady who shoul know they definitely ARE NOT pets. (And dont eat cookies xD)

That is because Drowsy was based on the Tapir, and the japanese myth of Baku a legendary tapir that feeds on nightmares. If you read Drowsy's dex entry it says he feeds on them and his signature movie is called Dream Eater.  This actually meant to be a good thing, people own tapirs like you would have a pet pig, and like the Native American Dream Catcher web, tapirs are meant to be so you could have a good night sleep. ^.^

That description. But to be fair, there are actually pigs with similar color schemes.

For ignorant people they look the same, just as every big theropod ( and sometimes middle sized and even small ) is T-REX111.

haha yeah.  If they looked at the pig and the tapir side by side they might get it..
