Rounding up a decent couple of weeks for the Okapi EEP, Basel has now imported 1.1 Okapi from Dallas in another boost for the program: Zoo Basel http://theokapi.org/Studbook/Detail.aspx?stud_id=616 - Imba (male) http://theokapi.org/Studbook/Detail.aspx?stud_id=640 - Ann
Hopefully some okapis will be sent from europe to america for more genetic diversity. Not that the north american Okapi program needs new genes as there is a large number of founders I believe.
The SSP / US okapi program is in much better shape than the Old World / Continent. I am glad to cooperation is improving between SSP and EEP. Much needed. Then again, all hail ... the work of White Oak, Yulee both here, ex situ and in situ!!!
