What do you get for the person who has everything?

This was a quickie for the Wood & Vale, running with the Christmas theme, concerning the annual zoo fund raising escapade that is "adopt an animal"! After the monkey tale, and the steady flow of press releases that originate from the zoo, it is turning out to be a good source of local news here in Westminster.

It's that familiar Christmas time conundrum. Just what do you get for the person who has everything?

Unless, the person who has everything already has a giraffe to call their own, staff at London Zoo just may have the perfect solution.

The zoo's long running animal adoption scheme provides the ideal gift for that special somebody in your life, be it a friend, partner, family member, or even yourself!

Under the scheme, members of the public may adopt an animal at the zoo for as little as £20.

Adopters receive a colour photograph of their adopted species, together with an adoption certificate, annual subscription to "Wild About" magazine, as well as an opportunity to visit the zoo.

As a festive incentive this year, anyone who spends over £30 on an animal adoption will also receive two tickets to visit their adopted animal, absolutely free.

The scheme allows adopters to support the zoo and its far reaching conservation work worldwide, on a level appropriate to themselves.

Supporters can adopt any animal at the zoo they wish, from Asian lions, to bird eating spiders!

Last orders for Christmas delivery must be made by the 17th December 2007. Arrangements can be made online at http://www.zsl.org/, or by contacting the zoo at 020 7722 3333.
