Traditional Adoptions

Adopt any animal at the Zoo with a traditional (mailed) adoption, and help us continue to provide outstanding care.

Pick your animal from the list provided below, then choose your level of adoption to proceed to the shopping cart.
Gift any adoption simply by choosing to in your shopping cart.
Consider maximizing your adoption donation at any level by making it a digital adoption at check out. Materials are then sent via email and more of your money benefits the animal(s) you adopt.
Higher level traditional adoptions include a plush animal if available, yet they are different than Wild Adoption Gift Packages offered for our featured animals (Wild Adoption Gift Packages can be found HERE).
