With the holiday season quickly approaching, the Smithsonian’s National Zoo asks that you keep the furry and non-furry animals in mind. Zoo keepers have created a “wish list” for all of your favorite animals. Each special item will provide enrichment opportunities, exercise, variety to their day and enhance their well-being while in our care.

If you don’t have time for shopping, let the Zoo do it for you! Visit the online enrichment store, choose an item, click “buy” to donate and the Zoo will do the rest. So, if the animals at the National Zoo have ever provided you with amusement or a memorable experience and you feel you can give back, now you can!
