Adopt An Animal

Anyone can adopt an animal!
The Zoo in Forest Park, a private non-profit organization, houses and cares for over 200 animals and birds. These wonderful creatures depend entirely on us, and you!

The Zoo offers the opportunity to become even closer to the animals and assist in supporting the cost of their food and care. Any individual or group can adopt an animal; singles, couples, families, school classes, office staff, clubs, businesses, sports teams, colleges, and community organizations. Most animals are adopted by more than one person or group.

You will receive:

  • Your name prominently listed on the Zoo Parents Honor Roll Plaque
  • Free Zoo Passes
  • A Fact Sheet and picture of your animal
  • A personalized Adoption Certificate for your animal for one year
  • The satisfaction and pleasure of knowing you support your favorite animal at the zoo.
