    This Article is about something Important: Is there a Zoo in the Entire World with Maned Wolves (Chrysocyon Brachyurus), Przewalski's Wild Horses (Eqqus Ferus Przewalskii), and Okapis (Okapia Johnstoni). They are All Three very rare Animals to See in Zoos. If you know a Zoo that has all three animals, Tell me.

    Brookfield Zoo in Chicago has okapis and Przewalski's wild horses. As for maned wolves, check this site. There appear to many in facilities in both the U.S. and abroad. I didn't look into whether these facilities have the okapis or horses, but there might be a couple in the list. https://www.isis.org/Pages/findanimals.aspx

    Marwell used to have all three but the Maned Wolves left the collection in the nineties.

    Don't really see why this is important but Leipzig Zoo and Wilhema Zoo (Stuttgart) in Germany each keep all three species.
