Why adopt one of the animals from Hawk Creek? Zoos acquire animals for exhibit and therefore are able to generate funds from entrance fees. Humane shelters rescue domestic animals that after a short period of time can be placed in a home with people. Unlike a zoo, Hawk Creek is not open to the public and unlike a shelter, we cannot send WILD animals home with the public. Our permanent residents cannot be released into the wild and must remain in our sanctuary for the rest of their natural lives. Some of them have life spans-such as our national symbol, the bald eagle-of over 60 years! You, the adopter, are these animals' lifeline. Your adoption of one of these rare animals will help support your "Wild Child" by providing necessary food and shelter. The different levels of sponsorship each have their own benefit to the new parents of our animals, and all levels of adoption come with an information pack and photograph of your adopted animal and a year-long subscription to our newsletter so you can follow the events that affect your animal. Please visit our resident animals page to meet our educational ambassadors and read their stories. 1. Choose your adoption level!
