    Hi Okapis, Welcome to Zoochat :)

    Thanks for that update (and your other ones in the Marwell thread) There has been previous discussion on the numbers of Okapi at Marwell so the news they are getting another female isn't unwelcome :)

    I have moved this thread into the Marwell section rather than General Zoo discussion

    A piece of good news for once from Marwell, at least it looks like they aren't thinking of adding the okapi to the missing mammals list! For now...

    So that's Daphne then? If so, she's not that old!
