Unless you give it a closer look, you may think the Okapi (Okapia johnstoni) is a zebra or a deer. It inhibits the Ituri Rainforest in the Democratic Republic of Congo. Some communities call it Zebra giraffe, forest giraffe, or Congolese giraffe. Okapis have a standing height between 5.25’-6.7’ (1.6-2.05 m), body length from 6.2’-8.2’ (1.9-2.5 m), shoulder height of 4.4’-5.7’ (1.35-1.75 m), and body width of 17.7”-23.6” (.45-.6 m).
