Jacksonville Animal adoption
The Jacksonville Zoo and Gardens offers a unique program designed to help offer the best for its animal residents. When you become an Honorary Zookeeper in the Adopt An Animal program, you become part of the Zoo community! In return for your generous support, you’ll receive a personalized Honorary Zookeeper certificate, a color photo, facts about your animal and more. While the animal you choose to sponsor will remain at the Jacksonville Zoo and Gardens, you will take home the satisfaction of contributing to the Zoo community.
