That's right, as with all of the construction on the elephant and giraffe habitats the okapi at the zoo have been bounced around a couple of times now.
The exhibit was not specifically designed for okapi, as it is a fairly generic hoofstock paddock. However, there are private barriers for the okapi to venture behind, shade in abundance, and a few large trees in the enclosure.

Certainly does look like a generic hoofstock paddock. I like the barriers, I even suggested this to Chester for their indoor enclousre a few years back.
