There are so many different animals, and there are still more to be discovered.  For now, though, here are ten animals you may never have heard of.

1: Okapis

The Okapis are mammals in the giraffe family.  They live in the rain forest and have  a brown upper body and stripped legs.

2: Pink Fairy Armadillo

The Pink Fairy Armadillo is the smallest in the armadillo family.  This creature looks similar to a big hamster dressed up like an armadillo.

3: Maned Wolf

The Maned Wolf is actually not a wolf or even a fox, though it resembles both.  It is a mammal and lives in areas like Brazil.

4: Dumbo Octopus

This Octopus lives in the very deep sea.  It has a u or v-shaped mantle, which looks similar to Dumbo from the Disney movie of that name.

5: Lamprey

Lamprey are jawless fish.  These creatures look a lot like big worms with teeth.

Even though all of these animals are rare, they are all the more interesting for their uniqueness.
