<br />
'''Bariki''', (born November 1982) also known by his [[zebra]] [[character]]'s name '''Raffa''', is a [[Wikipedia:British_people|British]]-born furry who has been a part of the [[furry fandom]] since 1999. Bariki now lives in the San Francisco Bay Area, California in the United States.<br />
<br />
== Fursona ==<br />
Bariki's [[fursona]] was for many years a silver [[anthropomorphic]] [[horse]]. However, he has become better associated with his [[fursuit]] Raffa's zebra identity since acquiring him in 2009. In 2016 he acquired another fursuit from the '''[[My Little Pony: Friendship is Magic]]'' fandom (Princess Luna).<br />

He was one of the founding directors of the non-profit company, ''LondonFurs Management Ltd'' (LFM Ltd), that was formed in 2012 to formalize community fundraising, provide liability insurance<ref>https://forum.ukfur.org/topic/37472-insurance-purchased-official-fursuit-walk-to-resume/</ref> for the group's public events (specifically for the fursuit walk, which had been halted because of liability issues) and to organize the hugely popular LondonFurs summer and winter parties.<br />

# '''Raffa''', a zebra fullsuit with digitigrade legs build by [[Ravell]] commissioned in 2009.<br />
