Will Zoo Be Mine?

Share a special Valentine message with a wild touch for that “paw-some” person in your life! Virtual Valentines are a unique way to send a customized video greeting to a friend or loved one — featuring their favorite zoo animal! Enjoy as one of our zookeepers narrates your personalized message alongside a penguin, otter, or other adorable animal!

Ordering is easy! You’ll select the featured animal, include a personalized message, and we record it. Videos are approximately 45-60 seconds and are emailed to you. Deadline to order is Feb. 7, but quantities are limited and may sell out earlier — order by Jan. 31 to save and secure your spot!

HOW VIRTUAL VALENTINES WORK

  • When you book your Valentine, you’ll complete a form with specific details and the message you want to send.
  • We’ll make a 45-60-second video with animal care team members narrating your message with the featured animal you chose.
  • On or before February 12, we’ll send you a link to download your video. You can then send it on to the recipient. You will have 14 days to download the video from the link sent.

 

Cost:

  • Early Bird pricing (until Jan. 31): $25 per Virtual Valentine
  • Standard pricing (Feb. 1 to Feb. 7 — or earlier): $35 per Virtual Valentine

 

  • The last day to order a Virtual Valentine will be February 7 — to ensure time to film — but quantities are limited and may sell out earlier.
