A hidden facility in North County strives to change the image of wildlife through public encounters, library and brewery visits -- and a fox who blogs
New Guinea singing dogs, Russian domesticated foxes, an Arctic fox, coyotes and a wolf named Lucan ... all are living quietly in the San Diego backcountry.
Residents of the center, which is only open for public visits and encounters on weekends by appointment and for scheduled private events, currently include 14 Russian domesticated foxes, three captive-bred red foxes, one Arctic fox, three New Guinea singing dogs, two coyotes and one wolf. Fourteen of the center’s foxes were imported from Russia, where they had been part of a behavioral research program on the process of domestication at the Siberian Institute of Cytology and Genetics.
Because of their acute sense of smell, the Bassetts thought the foxes could be trained as avalanche rescue animals or used for bomb, drug or cadaver detection. Amy envisioned this as a great way to draw attention to the animals, highlight their unusual abilities and win admirers.They found the animals were great at detection but terrible at returning home after the search.
