In the Rotterdam Zoo Mr. & Mrs. Okapi are spending a leisurely summer. The Okapi's are related to the giraffe family, The Okapi's are a very rare animal and seldom survive in captivity. The two Okapi's are outside walking around. MCUS - A giraffe (used in this clip to compare it to the physical appearance of the Okapi's) MCUS - Animal trainer hanging up leaves for the Okapi's. After he leaves the Okapis walk over and start eating the leaves. The tongue is like a giraffe's. CUS - A crowd of kids mostly boys are watching the Okapis. CUS - The Okapi head is a cross between a horse and a giraffe, very strange looking and the hind quarters looks like it belongs to the Zebra, which I find even stranger.
