Our New Gifts are Just Beastly
6th November 2008

We may have just the solution that you are looking for!
If you are stuck for an idea for a Christmas or birthday present for someone special then we may have just the solution that you are looking for.
Why not take home one of our new Beastly Adoption boxes? By making a ‘beastly’ boxed adoption of a Sumatran tiger, an Asian elephant or a Humboldt penguin neatly packaged in a beautiful gift box you will be giving someone a gift they will treasure safe in the knowledge that you have made a contribution to their ongoing care and well-being.
Your adoption includes an Adoption Certificate, a picture of your adopted animal, a cuddly toy, an animal fact-sheet, a badge, an Adoption welcome card, a free entry ticket to Dublin Zoo and our new monthly e-newsletter. You could also win one of two incredible family holidays courtesy of Sunway Travel and there’s a €100 discount voucher off a holiday of your choice in every box too!

The boxes are available in the Zoo Shops or on-line at www.dublinzoo.ie. Get yours now while stocks last!
Our Beastly Gifts range also includes a selection of virtual gifts. There’s something for everyone here from pocket money presents to something more substantial - but the best part is that each gift plays a vital part in our work here at Dublin Zoo.
Select from one of six beautiful gift cards featuring animals from the zoo – for birthdays, Christmas or general greetings- and choose your desired beastly gift. Take a look at the selection listed here and decide which one is right for you. They are available in the Zoo Shops or online at www.dublinzoo.ie.
