Okapi Indoor Area

The indoor Okapi on-show area is to the right of this photo. There is also an off-show indoor area behind the wall with the vivarium (which holds gaboon vipers)

Out of shot is an african fish tank and vivariums for african rodents

The first time I see an indoor enclosure for okapis, accessible to visitors. Interesting!

If I remember correctly then Brookfield Zoo in Chicago also has a small indoor viewing area for okapi.

Chester, London, Bristol and maybe Marwell (not too sure on that one though) all have indoor viewing for Okapi in the UK
