Strapping on our fanciest stripedy boots to celebrate World Okapi Day 💚

A few of our favorite things about these shy forest giraffes:
🍃Super long tongue can reach their eyes (slay)
🍃”Follow me” stripes help with camouflage and guiding calves through the Congo’s rainforest
🍃Their ears act like radar, listening front and back
