FW Zoo says all you need is love … and a penguin for Valentine’s

Surprise your special someone with a penguin adoption package

The Fort Worth Zoo invites the comminity to “Make penguins your love language this year” during the Valentine’s season — whether it be to your signigicant other, friends or family — by adopting a penguin.

When someone purchases a penguin adoption package from the Fort Worth Zoo, they receive a stuffed penguin plush, color photo, personalized adoption certificate and more, all while contributing to the care and feeding of the Zoo’s penguins for one year, a news release stated.

Adoption packages start at $40 and are presented in a festive Valentine’s Day-themed animal carrier box. Community members can choose between African and Rockhopper penguin species for the “Penguin Pal” package, or adopt the pair of penguins for the “Lovebirds” package.
