How does the adoption pack work?
Adoptions last for an entire year.
Adoption packs are entirely digital – they can be sent directly to the person of your choosing, along with a personalised message. The e-ticket allows your chosen person to book and redeem the ticket at a date and time best for them.
Adoptions contribute directly to the care of our animals. The money goes to providing our animals with the best care – this includes updating their enclosures, purchasing novel food items and engaging enrichment toys, and promoting conservation for their species in the wild!
