Judith A Bassett Canid Education & Conservation Center

"I heard about this center a year ago from a friend and immediately knew my daughter would love to go for her birthday. She loves foxes and learning about all things science and animal related. We booked the 1 hour canid educational experience, and she was over the moon when we told her. Unfortunately she broke her arm a week before she was supposed to go, but Amy was amazing and helped us reschedule to a time after my daughter's arm healed. For the experience, we got to meet Stumpy the New Guinea singing dog, Lucan the gray wolf, and then we got to go into the enclosure with two Russian domesticated foxes who were *so* sweet, soft, and fluffy! Following the enclosure, we got to learn about the other foxes at the center as well as their black backed jackals. Throughout the experience, we didnt get to just meet and see the canids, se also got to learn about their species, dangers to the species, and about the individual personalities of the canids there. Such an amazing and personal experience. Everyone was wonderful, and I was and remain so impressed by their communication. My daughter said it was her best birthday ever and has already requested it for her next. Thank you!!"

"We loved our visits so much we are already planning our next one. It was amazing getting to interact with these beautiful animals. The staff is so friendly and knowledgeable."

"I signed up for the 10AM fox encounter and it ended up being a private tour since I was the only one! The foxes were so beautiful, sweet and it was very evident they were well taken care of. Highly recommend the experience and to support a very good cause!"

"What a blast! Such a fun experience ...not gonna lie, the wolf is a bit intimidating and HUGE!! but also the highlight of my experience (but only by a decimal point over holding the foxes!) . Totally worth it. Highly recommended."

"My daughter and I had a great experience! We traveled about two hours just to come see the foxes and it was totally worth the trip! They had such beautiful foxes, and it's so nice that we got to pet and feed them. I definitely recommend visiting this place!"
