Helping Wildlife in the Zoo
The ZOO Gift Shop is located at the entrance to Caribbean Gardens. You can shop seven days a week from 9:30 a.m. to 5:30 p.m. whether you're going to be joining us in the zoo or just stopping by to pick up a gift for a special friend.

We have assembled a wide variety of gifts and curiosities reflecting our love of nature. We also offer a wide variety of zoo logo items from collector spoons and t-shirts to mouse pads,coffee mugs, and even golf balls. And as a privately funded zoological garden that receives no tax dollars, when you shop at The ZOO Gift Shop at Caribbean Gardens, you're helping the zoo continue its work. Thanks for shopping!

Donating to Help Wildlife in the Wild!
You'll find many unusual plush animals from lemurs and kangaroos to African wild dogs and even a life size tiger! The zoo donates five percent of the retail price of all plush primates and tigers to conserving them in the wild. The donation from primate plush is donated to the Madagascar Fauna Group and their programs that have successfully reintroduced lemurs to Madagascar. The donation from plush tiger sales is directed to Wildlife Conservation Society.

Adopt a Wild Tiger in Asia
And if you want to really help out, consider purchasing a tiger adoption kit from Hornocker Wildlife Institute. Your adoption kit includes regular updates for the tiger you select to adopt. It's also a great way to get kids involved in conservation.

Having a Great Time
You can also purchase your zoo memberships at The ZOO Gift Shop. This is a great way to enjoy the zoo yourself for a whole year or an even better idea for a present. At $29.95 for adults and $24.95 for children, it's one of the best values in southwest Florida. It's an inexpensive but meaningful present that you can afford to give to just about anyone on your birthday or holiday list! Click here to learn more about zoo memberships.

Hard to Find Video
The Zoo Gift Shop is also one of the few places outside of Africa where you can purchase the incredible wildlife videos from Londolozi Productions. Many of the hunting segments in Safari Canyon are excerpted from John Varty's amazing videos. Warning: We do censor the clips we show in the zoo because of our family audience. These videos in their entirety display the harsh realities of predator and prey relationships in more detail than is commonly seen on American television. If you appreciate nature documentaries, make sure you pick some of these up and get a true vision of life for African wildlife.
