Adopt-an-Animal Program

Bear Hollow Zoo offers a unique program that allows individuals the opportunity to adopt and help a zoo resident of his/her choice. Donations are used for food, exhibits, and wildlife education. There is a sponsorship level that fits every budget, and it makes a great gift idea for birthdays, holidays and other special events.

To adopt an animal at Bear Hollow Zoo, please call our office at (706) 613-3580.
