Whilst we are moving to an exciting new Adoption system, there will be a delay in processing orders placed after 2nd of July. We appreciate your patience during this time.
Please note that we aim to process adoption orders within two working weeks, although this time may increase around seasonal holidays. We recommend placing your order as early as possible to avoid any potential delays. Adoptions can also be purchased in person during normal opening hours at both Edinburgh Zoo and Highland Wildlife Park.
If you purchase is for a gift, our adoptions team can provide a digital certificate on request which you can print out at home to pass to your gift recipient until the full pack arrives.
You can choose between Cub (children under 12), Bronze, Silver, Gold and Platinum-level Adoption. All adopters receive a personalised pack of materials about their adopted animal.
