Adopt a Jaguar

Fun fact: Jaguars are known to be excellent swimmers!

The Jaguar, commonly mistaken for the Leopard, is the largest cat of the Americas and is recognisable by its spotted coat! Did you know that you can tell a Jaguar from a Leopard by checking the spots? A Jaguar has black dots within their spots (their spots have spots!) and Leopards do not.

Unfortunately, despite their popularity, this species of big cat is classified as Near Threatened on the endangered list, meaning that if we don’t do all that we can now to help, the Jaguar may be at risk in the near future.

Our adoption packs, starting from as little as £49 per year, support the conservation of these big cats and by adopting an animal you’re helping Hertfordshire Zoo in protecting as many of these wonderful big cats as possible.

Your adoption package includes a personalised adoption certificate and a photograph of your chosen animal. You will also have your name added to our very own adoption board of honour!

Our adoption packages are a great gift for a friend or family member, or even as a treat for yourself!
