C vs E

I was between these two answer choices. Why is C a better answer than E? It seems the questions of pop size and feeding habits were answered, which is why I didn’t choose c.

Hi, I think most of the passage is about how scientists figured out most of their questions about the okapi, but the final paragraph tells us which questions are unanswered. C correctly notes that that we do not know why they choose to live away from some of their favored foods.

E is wrong because the passage shows that most of the mystery of the okapi has been solved, and that the questions about them are not mostly unanswered.
