For just no-frills explaining why the line in the OP made no sense? Should I have thrown in an "lol" or an "uwu" as a tone indicator so you didn't read it in the least charitable way?

But if you actually want snippy: the line is utter bullshit. "Western scholars" is used as a weasel word, when taxonomists obviously know the difference between discovery and description; they receive specimens discovered by someone else literally all the time as part of their job. No taxonomist in 2026 (or "Western scholar", whatever the fuck that means) would think the okapi was "discovered" in 1901 or even by 19th-century Europeans who wrote about it; to assume otherwise is anti-intellectualist "stupid science bitches"-level horseshit and reflects zero understanding of taxonomy as a field.

But otherwise, if "Western scholar" means "France 24 Twitter person", then cool. Weird choice of phrasing, but it's accurate.
