Scrambling for a last-minute holiday gift, or stumped about what to get the person who has everything? Look no further than the Fort Worth Zoo, which has a trio of ideas that will bring happiness to humans and animals alike.

Zoo membership
For the first time ever, you can purchase membership gift certificates that can be activated at any time between now and September 30, 2021. A membership not only includes year-long access to the Fort Worth Zoo, but also tons of perks like free parking, discounted events and programs, and more.

Plus, memberships help support wildlife and conservation efforts locally and around the world, making it a gift that keeps on giving.

Adopt an animal
Though it's not legal to bring a zoo animal home, you can get the next best thing. Adopt a meerkat to directly support their care and feeding, while also receiving a soft, huggable plush meerkat to put under the tree. It comes in a festive animal carrier box, complete with a personalized adoption certificate, animal fact sheet, and more.

Direct donation
Spread the love by giving in support of conservation, education, and recreation. The Fort Worth Zoo strengthens the bond between humans and the environment by promoting responsible stewardship of wildlife and ensuring diverse, high-quality educational and entertaining family experiences. Donations also equip the zoo to make an impact on global conservation work.

As the Fort Worth Zoo adjusts to the long-term effects of COVID-19 and the impact that closing its gates for 11 weeks has had on conservation funding, your contribution will be an important lifeline.
