New Year, New Animals!

By Claudia Kessel | Advancement Writer

Dani the Porcupine
Dani the Porcupine

We're excited to introduce the newest member of our Virginia Living Museum family – Danni, a curious young porcupine who has recently arrived and is ready to capture your hearts!

Our adorable North American Porcupine, who traveled to us all the way from the Alaska Zoo, is a fascinating addition to our wildlife family and represents a species that is now very rare in Virginia's diverse landscapes.

The keeper team caring for her states that she is a "cute, messy eater that gets crumbs on her feet!" With her lovable little face and curious personality, she's already becoming a staff favorite. 

Guests can now visit her and other native wildlife at our new Wild Care Center!

As you can imagine, caring for a new animal can be costly. This holiday season, please consider making tax-deductible donation that will support the care of the newest member of our prickle!
