Color choices

Okapi can begin with a warm brown body, then use cream and deep brown across the striped legs and hindquarters. Color the large ears and small hooves next, keeping the muzzle lighter for contrast. Finish the broad leaves, curling vines, and tree trunks with layered greens, muted gold, and earthy brown to separate the animal from the dense forest.

Forest Stripe Palette

Choose a repeating palette for the okapi’s stripes, then echo those shades in selected leaves and vines to connect the foreground with the forest.

Before you print

With about 589 areas to color, Okapi in the Congo Forest Coloring Page is a detailed page with many small spaces. Fine-tip markers or sharpened pencils give the most control; color it in sections if you like.

The PDF fills one US Letter page. On A4 paper, choose “Fit to page” so the frame stays inside the margins, and print one test copy before making a class set.
