JABCECC:
Healing animals and humans through conservation

Welcome to the Judith A Bassett Canid Education and Conservation Center (“JABCECC”), where our passion for canids drives us to educate, inspire, and conserve.

As a 501c3 nonprofit organization, we have embarked on a mission not only to spread knowledge about canids, but also to play an integral role in their preservation. Read more about us, about our history, and about our mission. Get to know our animals and consider sponsoring one today!

Our center is located in Santa Ysabel, California, where we host private animal encounters, photography sessions, tours, and other experiences. We also have a satellite location in Southern Utah.

The easiest way to meet our animals is at one of our frequent events at locations around North County, San Diego. Check our events page for more information about opportunities to see our foxes & other canids!

You can help support our mission on this incredible journey of discovery and conservation through donations or volunteering! Together, we can ensure that the haunting howl of a wolf, the sly antics of a fox, and the boundless love of a dog continue to grace our planet for generations to come. At the JABCECC, it's not just about canids; it's about preserving the delicate tapestry of life of which they are an integral part.
