Animal Adoption
Rockhampton Zoo is a free attraction provided by Rockhampton Regional Council for the community and visitors to the region.
Adoption is a wonderful way for you to become involved in helping with the care of our animals. You will receive a special photo and a detailed information sheet your chosen animal. Plus with 15% of all income going towards animal conservation in the wild, you will also be helping wildlife and the natural world.
To find out more about the wildlife conservation projects that we have been able to support thanks to donations from visitors, visit our Conservation page.
