Become a Sole Animal Sponsor
Would you like to sponsor just one special animal at the Milwaukee County Zoo? Most animals available for sponsorship through the Zoological Society’s Sponsor an Animal program have several sponsors. The animals listed below, however, are available for sponsorship by just one person or group. These animals can be sponsored by an individual or a family. If you are interested in sponsoring one of these animals, please call (414) 258-2333, ext. 201, for more information.
