Adopt a penguin

Adopt your own penguin - you choose its name

penguin adoption penguins

Before you say adopt, ask yourself the following questions:

  • Are you adopting your own penguin?
  • Can you choose the name of your own penguin?
  • Does your money help save wild penguins?

with us the answer to all the above questions is YES.

No other penguin adoption program offers that. We are the ONLY penguin adoption program that offers the adopted home their own penguin. Other penguin adoption programs send photos of the same penguin to many adoptees. If you don't get to choose the name, you're not adopting your own penguin.

Our penguin adoption program has been featured in television documentaries around the world. You can watch TV documentaries featuring our work on YouTube, including BBC, TV, Animal Planet, Paramount Pictures, German and Spanish TV.

Who doesn't like penguins. Who wouldn't want to have one of their own. Adopt a penguin, tell us what you want to call it, we will send you a photo, you will also receive a digital copy of Dr Mike Bingham's book "The Penguins of South America". Your penguin's home (nest) will have a special marker with the name you have chosen for it, we will track the progress of your penguin and its chicks when they hatch. All for $59 a year.

Adopt a Penguin is a perfect gift for adults and children

The adoption fee allows us to monitor our adopted penguins, so we can learn how they live and help protect them. You will see on other pages of this website that our penguin research is internationally acclaimed and that your money will be used appropriately.

If it is a surprise gift, please provide us with the name of the recipient for the adoption certificate, but simply include your own email address, you can resend the gift by email at the exact time you choose or print the presentation photo and certificate of adoption to deliver it personally. You can then add the recipient's email address and we will directly send them a future photo, with copies for you, so you can follow the adoption you have given them.

The cost of adoption is US$59 and we offer payment by Paypal,credit and debit card (via Paypal). For payments by cheque or bank transfer please contact us for instructions
