Names for Our Por-cute-pines

Look sharp! It’s time to greet our African crested porcupettes by name! 

Earlier this month, we invited our member community to help name our two African crested porcupettes, and they did a quilly great job! Our male porcupette born in February has been named Atlas (AT-luss) after the Atlas Mountains of Morocco. Born in July, our female is Enna (EH-nah, pictured) is named after the province of Enna in Sicily, Italy, where African crested porcupines are found in the wild. 

Thank you to our members for helping us to name our por-cute-pines! Stop by to see them in the African Savannah Building.
