With our symbolic adoption program, your students can become “Zoo Parents,” contributing directly toward one of the Zoos’ animal’s care and feeding for one year. Plus, this experience provides a unique experience that children of all ages will enjoy.
Every animal at the Virginia Zoo is available for adoption at several donation levels, starting at just $25.
For more information or questions on the Zoodoption program, call 757-441-2374, ext. 222.
