Today would’ve been Snowy’s 16th birthday if she was still with us.
I wanted to thank all 650 of you for signing the petition! There’s still been no response from Adelaide Zoo yet, but I believe if we keep getting more people to sign and contact Adelaide Zoo to directly express our desire to memorialise the world’s only known white meerkat we can make it happen!
Here’s a reminder of how you can contact Adelaide Zoo (feel free to send this petition to them and/or tag them when you share it on social media, along with your own reasons for wanting them to take action):

As always, here’s some other ways you can help this cause:
Share this petition with anyone you think would like to support this cause - friends, family, coworkers etc who are passionate about meerkats, animal conservation and zoo welfare. 100 of you (14%) have signed thanks to shares on Facebook, showcasing how beneficial this action can be - the more supporters, the more likely Zoos SA will act on this petition!
Paying to promote the petition will significantly increase the number of views and potential signatures this petition receives, making it more likely that Zoos SA’s management will see and respond to our requests. In fact, 286 of you (40%) have signed thanks to promotions. Please only consider this option if you have funds to spare, I completely understand that cost of living is at an all-time high right now and many people are struggling to get by (or that people might want to save funds for any fundraising efforts Zoos SA may make). You can donate as much or little as you like, absolutely no pressure! :)
We want this petition to gain as much traction as possible, so that Adelaide Zoo’s management notices and hopefully takes action on our request. Snowy was literally a one-of-a-kind animal, and it’s important that Adelaide Zoo preserves her legacy and contribution to animal history by commemorating her. Let’s all keep working together to make this happen!
