Okapi pronghorn (SciiFii)

The okapi pronghorn (Nanogiraffoantila okapia), also known as the false okapi and the American okapi, is a species of pronghorn that originally did not exist, but has since been created by SciiFii and introduced throughout the rainforests, swamps, marshlands, forests, and open woodlands across North America to help boost biodiversity. The okapi pronghorn stands about 1.5 meters (4.9 feet) tall at the shoulder and has a typical body length around 2.5 meters (8.2 feet). Its weight ranges from 200 to 350 kg (440 to 770 lb). It has a long neck, and large, flexible ears. Male okapi pronghorns have long, distinct ossicone-like horns on their heads. Females possess hair whorls, and horns are absent. Okapi pronghorns are primarily diurnal, but may be active for a few hours in darkness. They are essentially solitary, coming together only to breed. Okapi pronghorns are herbivores, feeding on tree leaves and buds, pine needles, grasses, ferns, shrubs, fruits, and fungi, filling the similar ecological niche to the true okapis. Rut in males and estrus in females does not depend on the season. In captivity, estrus cycles recur every 15 days. The gestational period is around 440 to 450 days long, following which usually a single calf is born. The juveniles are kept in hiding, and nursing takes place infrequently. Juveniles start taking solid food from three months, and weaning takes place at six months. The conservation status of the okapi pronghorn is Least Concern due to successful conservation efforts and the okapi pronghorn's wide range.
