stella

our relaxed porcupine

“Hi guys! I'm Stella, and I am an African crested porcupine that lives at Wild Florida! I have been at Wild Florida for four years. One of my good friends is Green Bean, an African Pied Hornbill that lives with me. I hope to meet you in person one day, and don’t worry; I don’t poke you with my quills!”
