Take A WILD Animal Into Your Heart - Birmingham Zoo

Celebrate VALENTINE'S DAY 
and support your BIRMINGHAM ZOO by
symbolically adopting a wild animal as a holiday gift!

Your gift will help to provide food, health care, habitat maintenance, and enrichment activities for the Zoo's animal family, and also help to support the Zoo's education and conservation programs.

Your friend or loved one will receive an adoption certificate, animal fact sheet, photo, and plush from the Zoo gift shop. You can also gift yourself an animal adoption!

Become the proud parent of an animal at your Birmingham Zoo today! 

When you symbolically adopt, your gift helps provide food, welfare, and vital care for the Zoo's animal family, as well as support education and conservation programs.

Every animal at your Zoo has very specific needs.

You can help meet these needs with an adoption! Adopt for yourself, a relative, or a friend. An animal adoption makes a one-of-a-kind present for birthdays, graduations, anniversaries, holidays, or special occasions.
