DUBAI: Residents of the UAE can now officially ‘Adopt an Animal’ at The Green Planet Dubai, a tropical rainforest home to over 3,000 plants and animals across four indoor rainforest levels.
Through this initiative, animal lovers will be able to adopt Lemon the sloth, Kendrick the lemur, Amal the slow loris, Goldie the blue and gold macaw, and Coco the toco toucan for the duration of one year.
The adopted animals will be under the expert care of trained individuals at The Green Planet. Through this programme, The Green Planet parents would be contributing to the conservation and education initiatives by helping to conserve, breed, and preserve the species and their natural habitats as well as assisting in the animals’ welfare by donating to the wildlife sanctuary, the rehabilitation programmes, veterinary requirements, and contributing to the provision of general animal needs.
Animal adoptions are an ideal present for loved ones, family, and friends. This unique and thoughtful initiative comes in different options including gold, silver, and bronze. Each package comes with a welcome letter, a personalised adoption certificate, an animal keychain and email updates about your adopted animal.
Sara Stevens, Head of Operations and Curator at The Green Planet, said, “We are thrilled to be able to bring this experience to the animal enthusiasts in the UAE. Adopting an animal is really rewarding and there’s no better way to show support for the rainforest.”
