Virtual adoptions

Our new virtual adoption range contains a larger selection of animals than our standard range, and you’ll receive your adoption within minutes. Adoptions help us to raise vital funds to care for our animals, whilst making a fantastic gift.

At just £30, virtual adoptions include an e-certificate, e-fact file and two e-editions of our Zoo Magazine (emailed to you within minutes of becoming an adopter). Your name will also be displayed on our virtual adoptions board and you’ll receive a ticket to the Zoo – so you can make sure your animal is actually real!   

Kukeña, our baby western lowland gorilla is now also available for adoption!

If you are choosing to adopt one of our western lowland gorillas, please be aware that the gorilla house will be closed for refurbishment over the coming months so the gorillas may not be on show when you visit, more information can be found here.

Become a virtual adopter by filling out the form here, or click on the animal below that you would like to adopt.
