Adopt a rhinoceros
Adopting a rhino at Paignton Zoo will make a real contribution to our vital conservation work for rhinos and other species. Our adoptions make a fantastic birthday or Christmas gift for animal lovers of all ages. Prices start from as little as £30 per year and we have up to four packs to choose from, depending on the animal selected.
Please note that the last date to order an animal adoption for delivery in time for Christmas is Wednesday 19th December.
At Paignton Zoo, we have two black rhinos - Sita and Manyara. This subspecies is listed as Critically Endangered with around only 5,000 individuals left in the wild. Poaching and trafficking of rhino horn continues to plague this species and its recovery.
