Adopt Me

Hippo - £100

The Hippo

Hippos are classified as a Vulnerable Species. We aim to change that! You can help us by virtually adopting one from Umoya Khulula for just £100.

Adopt Me

Open your parental paws and become an Umoya Khulula “parent”. You could be a proud adopter to a critically impacted species such as a pangolin or a hippo. Whatever the occasion, a wild animal species is a rare gift. Anyone who appreciates nature’s most beautiful creatures can virtually adopt a species for a full year!

Your virtual animal adoption helps Umoya Khulua Wildlife Centre provide food, medication, veterinary care, supplies, and the highest standards of animal care.

Sponsorships are available for $25, $50, and $100 and include:

  • an electronic photo of the animal you are sponsoring
  • an information sheet about the selected animal
  • a certificate of virtual adoption.

Any individual, organization, business, or club can adopt a wild animal species.  School classes are especially encouraged to become wild parents.  Adopt a wild animal species for yourself, your family, your team, club, employees, or your friends.  Just think of the joy of passing around photos of your adoptive species.

Of course, your wild species remains the property of Umoya Khulua, where it stays so our staff is able to give it the best possible care. You are adopting a species, and not a single animal, which definitely takes more than one parent to provide for the care of these dwindling animals.
