Item Description
The Okapi (Okapia johnstoni) is a mammal native to the Ituri Rainforest, located in the northeast of the Democratic Republic of the Congo, in central Africa. Although the Okapi bears striped markings reminiscent of the zebra, it is most closely related to the giraffe.

The Okapi is definitly a strange but cute looking animal. I wonder where it's been hiding all this time. I am still trying to decide what it looks like to me. A cross between a Zebra (stripes on the legs), a donkey,(it's body) and a deer, (the head). Again, very interesting animal.

The Okapi is a rare animal that is found in the rainforests in Africa. Just recently the Zoological Society of London were able to capture pictures of this rare animal. It looks like a zebra, a giraff and a deer all the same. I can't help but wonder if it is mixed bred.
