Zooniversity LLC is privately owned, fully insured, federally licensed by the USDA, and we hold all the required state, county and city permits for the animals we care forensuring you that youre hiring wildlife professionals.
Most of our animal ambassadors came to us as injured wildlife and displaced exotic "pets," some from deplorable captive conditions. Now, they all enjoy a safe and pampered existence at our Zooniversity facility. They all have spacious homes, nutritious zoological diets, a schedule of proper veterinary care and daily enrichment and socialization activities.
None of our animals are intended to be kept as household pets. We often share their stories and scars to illustrate important issueshabitat and species conservation, the responsibilities of exotic pet ownership and the need for restrictions on the collection and importation of animals for the exotic pet trade.

Either way, this little guy needs his own version of the "Panda Cam."

And I am with the others who didn't even know that a porcupine vocalized at all, much less with that silly little voice.
