In the same denclosure of Red river pig, but I didn't see pigs today, not sure what is the plan
 
I wonder if Mandai would ever attempt a mixed species habitat involving the rumoured Okapis alongside red river hogs, nyalas / bongos, etc.

The Animal Kingdom in Disney has a similar concept with the above-mentioned species, accompanied by interesting candidates like Ruppell's vultures, ground hornbills, crowned cranes and spur-wing geese.
 
@Casuarius_casuarius mixing okapi with antelope (perhaps males at least) may not be that great an idea as there was an incident in a zoo where an okapi died after being injured by a male nyala. Red river hogs may also be aggressive to other animals. Perhaps Mandai can bring back duikers to mix with their okapis
