 :mfr_lol:  Not often we see signs like those up in these here hills. I've seen a few elephants coming out of some of our local night clubs though on a Saturday night.  :popcorn:

What animal is the one on the first sign?
Looks like a Tapir but don't those only live in South America?

- hi and yes , its a Tapir.

- they're here in our forests and plantations (Malaysia). Very nocturnal, and can grow to be very heavy.

- and that South American animal you mentioned is probably a Capybara ? Ie :

There is an animal one on here, but it gets lost in the mass of (Spanish) warnings!

No, I know Capybaras - the largest rodents in the world and a preferred Anaconda snack.  :banana:
I knew that there are 3 species of Tapir native to South and Central America, but I didn't know that there is also a Malayan Tapir.

No need to stop - just the usual for most roads heading into a mountainous area - 60km/h, sharp bends, narrowing road, rockfalls, cows running across the road and snow likely.  :clap:
Just keep going and forget about it!  :mfr_lol:
