| Okapis and giraffes are very different in their ecology and behavior. |
| We care for the same reason that we love okapis, delight in the fossil evidence of trilobites, and mourn the passage of the dodo. |
| The money went to a program for studying okapis and buying them fresh green leaves to eat. |
| Okapis resemble their cousin, the giraffe, with their large upright ears and long dark tongues used to strip young leaves from the brush. |
| Then we went to see the condors, coatis, forest buffaloes, giraffes, okapis, red river hogs and on to the chimpanzees. |
| And with only 14 okapis in zoos in the UK, the arrival of Usala is an important boost to the breeding programme for the endangered species. |
