You may not be able to bring her home, but even this lioness is available for adoption.
At the Los Angeles Zoo, ADOPT stands for "Animals Depend on People Too". ADOPT is the name of a program that allows animal lovers to assist the zoo with their wildlife conservation efforts through financial sponsorship. All animals in the zoo are available for sponsorship. Depending upon the monetary commitment level you sign up for, adoptive parents receive some or all of the following: a personalized adoption certificate, an animal fact sheet with photo, an ADOPT car decal, website recognition, a color photo by the zoo's photographer, four zoo passes, and a docent-led cart tour for up to 4 people. There are three ways to sign up for this program.
