A.D.O.P.T.S.
The Detroit Zoological Society’s A.D.O.P.T.S. program provides an opportunity for you to support endangered species around the world and our mission of creating meaningful connections between people, animals and the natural world so all can thrive.
Your symbolic animal adoption will support the conservation of animals at the Detroit Zoo as well as endangered species around the world. Your support will also help provide the best in animal and veterinary care for the more than 2,000 animals representing more than 200 species that call your Detroit Zoo home.
