Okapis

This interesting looking animal is also know as the Forest Giraffe.
The only place they are found in the wild is the Ituri Rainforest in the Republic of Congo in Africa.
They are a shy creature and I was lucky that is one was in view when we were at the Bronx Zoo.

Yes, very interesting. Looks like he bought the pants but decided against the jacket.

The leg patterns would make wonderful tights!

Such an interesting looking animal...they are fascinating. I can see why, it's a giraffe's head and legs on a horses body:0) vvv
