The aim of this study was to describe the skull bones of Tapirus terrestris (Linnaeus - 1758) and this study was to obtain measurements in adult skulls of T. terrestris, establishing a standardization of craniometric values for this species. Six adult tapir skulls were used. The specimens are part of the didactic collection of the Laboratory of Teaching and Research in Wild Animals of UFU. The skulls were treated with usual maceration techniques. It was defined the localization of 20 craniometric points used in horses according to Von Den Driesch (1976) and 48 linear measures were carried out from the points. The skull is composed by the following bones: Occipital, Sphenoid (Basisphenoid, Presphenoid), Temporal, Frontal, Parietal, Interpari...
