Adopt an Amur Tiger
You can help conserve Amur tigers
Did you know that Amur tigers are endangered? This subspecies of tiger is very rare in Northeast Asia and Korea. The current threats to the tigers' future are: habitat destruction, elimination of their natural prey, and the spread of agriculture. Consider adopting Whirl through our Animal Adoption Program today and be a part of her continued care and support!

Whirl
Whirl was born right here at Brookfield Zoo Chicago in May 2007 and, after a brief adventure at Minnesota Zoo, has been back with us since 2013. She quickly settled back into her familiar surroundings and has been a mainstay of Big Cat Walkway ever since. These days, if she's not taking one of her long cat naps, Whirl can usually be seen exploring her enrichment or splashing in the pool.
Interested in adopting Whirl? Online purchasing for adopts will be rolled out soon!
In the meantime, please call 708-688-8341 from 9 a.m. - 3 p.m. to symbolically adopt.
