Sekele is settling into his new habitat alongside Salma the yellow-backed duiker, and our ground hornbills, Bunsen and Merry. Sekele is an okapi, a relative of the giraffe, but at first glance, his striped legs and thick, velvety brown coat might have you doing a double take, questioning if he’s part zebra, part horse, or something else entirely. As an Endangered species, okapi face serious threats from habitat loss and poaching in their native Congo Basin forests. Come meet Sekele, learn his story, and discover why protecting this remarkable forest-dweller matters. #Okapi #Sekele #DenverZooConservationAlliance #SavingWildlifeTogether #EndangeredSpecies
