Within the greenery of Ti-Ratana Community Centre in Cheras, the porcupines are part of a small care programme. Visits are arranged with the responsible caretaker, with the animals’ wellbeing coming first.

Animal welfare
Care comes before every visit
Give the porcupines space to rest and retreat. A visit does not guarantee close contact, feeding or a particular animal behaviour. Caretaker instructions and the animals’ needs always take priority.
