Sound on to hear a noisy por-cute-pine! 🔊

While it’s rare to hear our African crested porcupines vocalize, this species sure can make some noise to scare off predators! By rattling their hollow quills, this rodent species keeps predators at bay before resorting to using their sharp quills. 🪡 Stop by to see our growing porcupettes in the African Savannah Building! 🦔
