Preparing the diet for Okapis

Between 9.30 am to 10.00 am the leaves are dropped off at the hangar shown in the picture. The next stage is to prepare 1536 bundles of leaves for the afternoon and the following morning to feed the Okapis.
Electrical wire is used to wrap around every bundle which allows to hang up the leaves on a feeder in the Okapi pen.
Not every animal gets the same number of bundles of leaves.
The leaves will be loaded to wheelbarrow. Every animal has his keeper including myself we are 13 in total. I take care of Karu born in captivity in Epulu 2003
