Animal also known as the zebra giraffe (5)

I believe the answer is:

okapi

(Other definitions for okapi that I've seen before include "Giraffe-related mammal" , "African relative of the giraffe" , "They're wild in central Africa" , "African ruminant" , "Central Afr. ruminant" .)

I've seen this clue in The Guardian.
