We collected this footage with one of our camera traps on Mount Mbia, just 1 km outside of Epulu where the Okapi Wildlife Reserve headquarters are located. Excellent footage of a wild okapi doing what they do naturally and peacefully. Don't forget about World Okapi Day on October 18! Visit www.worldokapiday.org for more. Enjoy :) | Okapi Conservation Project | Facebook

Recently captured by our camera traps deep in the Okapi Wildlife Reserve, this footage shows an okapi moving freely through its undisturbed rainforest home—a testament to the power of conservation. Protecting these forests means protecting the okapi and countless other species that depend on them. | Okapi Conservation Project

Okapi have multiple ways of marking their territory including a scent gland on each foot which releases a tar-like substance to indicate the area is theirs. Furthermore, they can also secrete urine to mark their territory, as can be seen from this footage from one of our camera traps. | Okapi Conservation Project | Facebook
