Meet Our Porcupine

Lancelot

Lancelot, the North American porcupine, was born in the state of Pennsylvania in May 2013. Since he was born in captivity and raised by humans, instead of other porcupines, Lancelot was not equipped to survive on his own in the wild. He currently resides in Perkins Wildlife Center & Woods Garden, but frequently can be seen walking the halls of the Cleveland Museum of Natural History or educating visitors during our live animal programs and classes.
