Meet Oakley the Okapi, a forest giraffe endemic to the North east of Congo in Central Africa. Whilst displaying striped features of a zebra, Oakley’s closest relatives are giraffes. Oakley likes his independence, and you will often find him alone outside, quietly grazing amongst the vegetation. Oakley’s large ears means he can hear very well, making him a great musical composer. Although he can’t sing very well, Oakley can play songs on most instruments just by sound, with little to no practice.
He aspires to be the next best composer of Congo!
