Reasons for apparent rarity ·
Good camouflage, don't travel in groups or in open areas
They stay inside the forest.
Reason for staying inside forest ·
Eat only leaves
They never eat one plant much more than others. So they walk around the forest eating various leaves, and don't congregate in groups in the forest.

Question 3 ·
Why remain only in forest when they eat plants that are found between forest and savanna?
Possible Answers ·
Defense against predators or outcompeted by other animals in other areas
Question 4 ·
Why aren't they in other nearby forests?
Possible answer ·
Live in area that used to be the only forest
Zoologists think Okapis respect the boundaries of what used to be the only forest, even after forest expanded.
