One of my earliest memories is actually looking at an okapi at the Brookfield Zoo. I also chose to do my 8th grade report on the okapi. Did you know they weren't discovered by European until the early 1800s? Scientists called them forest zebras because they usually saw them retreating from the back. Those sightings and skins were all they had for a while to recognize them.

How come it says Jonboy1785 posted the okapi entry?
