We are falling in 💚 already!

Our female prehensile-tailed porcupette was born on June 4!

Prehensile-tailed porcupines are arboreal animals, spending most of their time in trees. These porcupines are also nocturnal, so you can see them on the nocturnal side of the Small Mammals building.

Link in bio to learn how our dedicated Zookeepers have yet another reason to be proud!
