Animal Adoptions make great gifts for birthdays, holidays, graduations, celebrations for the animal lover in your life. Your gift also supports the animals in our care. The Oregon Coast Aquarium is a nonprofit organization that receives very little government funding, and relies on contributions like Animal Adoptions. You can symbolically adopt any of the animals listed below, and a gift will be mailed directly.
Allow 10 days for processing. Adoption gifts mailed outside of the continental United States will be subject to additional postage and shipping lead times.
Choose from any of the below listed animals! Some animals can be adopted by name, such as Earle the Otter, while others are simply the type of animal, like Leopard Shark.
Adoptions help us provide the highest quality food and medical attention for the Aquarium’s animals.
