Such worthy work. Hope those in Africa know about it.

I’m one of those people who like animals better than humans. Good thing, because my cat is a horribly b@tchy kitty. Vet warned me when I brought kitten in for her first visit. “A tri-colored tabby, very smart and very fierce”.

He founded and runs the Okapi Wildlife Preserve in the Congo. The world authority on that elusive animal. If you see one in a zoo anywhere in the world, he had to sign off on the zoo having it.

Runs the Okapi Foundation from the Jacksonville Zoo

He’s 6’6” and the natives in that preserve are Mtubi pygmies. Under 5 foot

Funny to see the pictures of him with them. Interesting guy to talk too. Very down to earth
