Look for that last minute Christmas present

ANIMAL ADOPTION

 

The Animal Adoption Programme at the Highland Wildlife Park located in Kincraig, Cairngorms National Park nr Aviemore, helps us in our vital conservation work and in keeping our animals healthy and happy! Your support helps towards the costs of feeding, providing naturalistic and stimulating enclosures, and any veterinary costs for your chosen species.

 

ANIMAL ADOPTION - A Wild Xmas Gift!

Animal Adoption is an unusual gift and a unique way to contribute to the costs of keeping and feeding the rare and endangered animals in the Highland Wildlife Park’s care. It also helps further the Royal Zoological Society of Scotland’s vital conservation, education and research work. There are over 100 different animal species to adopt at the Highland Wildlife Park and Edinburgh Zoo, ranging from the wolf, snow monkey and Scottish Wildcat at the park to the chimpanzee, king penguin, pygmy hippo and rainbow lorikeet at the Zoo. Starting at a minimum donation of £40 - you can adopt any animal species, at any level, for a whole year - a Przewalski’s Horse costs no more than a dung beetle! Simply choose which animal you would like to adopt, choose your level of adoption and then fill in the application form which can be acquired from the Adoption Department at Edinburgh Zoo or on-line (see link at the bottom of page).
