Support Wildlife. Inspire Wonder.

Adopt-a-Creature.

Want to make a difference for animals and bring a little wild magic into your life? Join our Adopt-a-Creature program and symbolically adopt one of The Creature Conservancy’s beloved ambassadors—Harper the cougar, Al the alligator, Poco the sloth or Danny or Kya the clouded leopards!

By becoming a Creature Ally, Protector, Guardian, Champion, or Hero, you’re not just supporting an animal—you’re investing in our mission of conservation through education. Your adoption helps provide exceptional care and enriching experiences for our animals, and unforgettable educational programs for people of all ages.

Every tier includes unique perks like plushies, medallions at habitats, or even a lifetime membership—and every dollar brings us closer to a world where people and wildlife thrive together.
