Shower Kirkja and Franklin with sun-kissed love this summer as a Zoo PAL!

Your support is needed now more than ever. Sponsor the African Elephant or Giraffe this summer and help provide exceptional animal care and enrichment for all of our animals at the Toledo Zoo & Aquarium!

Questions? Please contact the Zoo at 419-385-5721, ext 2159.

Please remember that the animal you support through your sponsorship is a living creature and is subject to the same frailities as human beings.
