Do you enjoy learning about the Animal Ambassadors at Brookfield Zoo?

Quirky, spiky, and full of personality, Quilbert is a shining star of Brookfield Zoo's Animal Ambassador program.

Now imagine having the opportunity to truly know him, and to play a key role in providing top-notch care for the animals of Brookfield Zoo by becoming Quilbert's VIP Lead Patron.

What would this look like?
There are so many reasons to take part in this exclusive opportunity!

As Quilbert's VIP Lead Patron, your family name will be on display at an exhibit at Brookfield Zoo for one year (beginning July 1, 2021). You will have special VIP access, allowing you to truly get to know this precocious porcupine. This includes:

  • An Animal Ambassador painting experience with VIP parking, a cart tour and lunch for six.
  • A Zoom chat or Birthday shout out with a member of Quilbert's animal care team.
  • Regular video and written updates - allowing you up close and personal (but safe!) face to face access.
  • Additionally, you'll receive photos, cards, and name recognition in the Chicago Zoological Society's Annual Report.


You can help make a difference by sponsoring Quilbert at the VIP Lead Patron level.

More about Quilbert:
Quilbert was born at Brookfield Zoo on July 2, 2018 to mom Lucia. Shortly after his birth, it was evident that Lucia (a first-time mom) was not going to provide him with the proper maternal care he needed. At that time, animal care and veterinary staff made the decision to intervene and hand-rear him. As a result of the strong bonds formed with his care team staff, Quilbert has become a popular member of the zoo's ambassador animal program. Visitors are regularly wowed by his calm demeanor in front of crowds. His calm demeanor and close bond with the keepers allows for voluntary exams by vet staff and other husbandry behaviors. Quilbert has a very soft nose that feels like a marshmallow!
