Symbolic Adoptions

From a tapir or polar bear, to a muskox, or even a playful otter, symbolically adopting a Zoo animal through our Adopt-A-Species program lets you become an important caretaker for these exotic creatures.

Your contribution helps us care for our animals, providing an enriching environment for them to grow, play and learn while educating our community.

Give the Gift of the Wild

Symbolic adoptions are great gift ideas for birthdays, anniversaries, special occasions or any other holiday! Each package includes a 12″ plush, certificate, fact sheet, and 5×7 photo.

These meaningful and rewarding gifts help preserve our wildlife and give back to our community.
