Adopt-An-Animal Program

The San Antonio Zoo is home to more than 3,500 animals representing 600 species of invertebrates, fish, amphibians, reptiles, birds, and mammals. You can help us provide for the care and feeding of the Zoo's living collection by sponsoring an animal for one year through our Adopt-an-Animal program.

Select the animal you would like to adopt from the Animals for Adoption List and choose the gift level at which you wish to participate. In return for your donation, we will send you or your gift recipient the sponsorship package that accompanies that particular gift level.

The Adopt-an-Animal program is perfect for many occasions: birthdays, holidays, anniversaries, businesses, school and club fundraising programs, and more.

All adopted animals remain in the care of the Zoo, and no ownership rights are conferred.
