In 2019, Parc Animalier de Sainte-Croix expanded its offerings with the introduction of the 'Nouveau Monde' exhibit, an 8.5-hectare area dedicated to North American wildlife. This exhibit includes species such as American bison, black bears, coyotes, raccoons, prairie dogs, striped skunks, and notably, North American porcupines.

The porcupines are housed along a 1-kilometer trail within the 'Nouveau Monde' area, designed to provide visitors with an immersive experience of North American fauna. While specific details about individual porcupines, their acquisition, or breeding programs are not publicly available, the exhibit aims to educate visitors about these unique animals and their habitats.
