Care for the Rare and Make a Difference!
The natural rate of extinction on Earth is one or two species per century. Scientists estimate we are currently losing up to 100 species per day, and most predict that half of the animal species alive today will become extinct in the next 100 years.
When you sponsor an animal through Rare Care, you help us continue our conservation work here at the Zoo and around the world. And you help us continue sharing these animals’ magnificence with Zoo visitors.
Rare Care guidelines
- All sponsorship animals are available to an unlimited number of sponsors.
- Levels and benefits are subject to change without notice.
- Sometimes, for a variety of reasons, your chosen animal may no longer be available for sponsorship.
- All donations to the Rare Care program support Zoo Atlanta’s conservation work and are partially tax-deductible.
