The gestation period is very long: about 420 to 455 days. A single calf is born. Calves defecate for the first time between 4 and 8 weeks of age. They reach full adult size at the age of 3 years.

The gestation of an okapi can last up to 16 months. Before birth the female will go into the dense vegetation to give birth to a single calf. They will nest in that spot for 2 months. They are usually weaned by 6 months, but can suckle for a year.
