Adopt A Whale, or a Polar Bear, Or a Wolf Oh My!

Many conservation and animal protection organizations offer great gift ideas that allow you to “adopt” a particular animal and get a nice little gift package. In turn, your money will be helping to save the habitats and lives of the animals that you are concerned about the most. Nearly everyone has a favorite animal and this is a great gift idea for people on your list of any age. It can even be a great way to help children learn more about nature and the animal world.

Here is a list of some of the best organizations offering adoption gift sets:

Oceana’s Adopt A Creature

WWF’s Animal Adoptions

Defenders of Wildlife Wildlife Adoption & Gift Center

Comfy Pajamas and Recycled Coke Bottles
