Okapi Facts for KidsOkapi Facts for Kids: A Fun and Educational Journey into the World of Africa’s Hidden Animal - Softcover
Synopsis
The okapi is a rare and unusual mammal that lives in the dense rainforests of Central Africa. At first glance, it may look like a mix of different animals. Its body is mostly dark brown, similar to a horse or antelope, while its legs have bold black-and-white stripes like a zebra. Because of this unusual appearance, many people are surprised to learn that the okapi is actually most closely related to the giraffe.
Scientifically known as Okapia johnstoni, the okapi belongs to the same family as the giraffe, called Giraffidae. This means that even though it does not have the long neck of a giraffe, it shares important features with it, such as a long tongue and similar bone structure. The okapi can be thought of as a shorter, forest-adapted relative of the giraffe, specially designed to live in thick vegetation rather than open grasslands.
