The Okapi Wildlife Reserve occupies about one-fifth of the Ituri forest in the north-east of the Democratic Republic of the Congo. The reserve contains threatened species of primates and birds and about 5,000 of the estimated 30,000 okapi surviving in the wild.

Okapi Wildlife Reserve is a UNESCO World Heritage site. The postcard was stamped and postmarked in Uvira but sent inside cover from Burundi.
