Anomalous coloration is a phenomenon regularly observed in mammals, however, in the case of albinism, this is a relatively rare condition; for example, less than 2% of rodent species have reports of this condition. This issue presents the first report of a case of albinism in a porcupine of Coendou quichua, based on a specimen captured in northwestern Ecuador.
