Distant Cousins
“Did you know that the only surviving relative of the giraffe is the okapi? Okapi and giraffes are the sole members of the biological family known as Giraffidae. Okapi are naturally solitary, shy creatures that live in densely forested areas, so they probably wouldn't be too interested in attending any family reunions, though.”
