This is a private, one-hour sanctuary tour that guides up to four visitors through the lives of rescued foxes: the program pairs a compact, educational briefing about the animals’ past and the history of fur farming with supervised time inside the fox enclosures where guests may offer snacks; physical contact is not guaranteed because the foxes remain in their home and cannot be forced to participate.

THE ANIMALS

Meet the Fox Residents

The tour centers on rescued foxes living at the sanctuary: visitors receive education about each animal’s history and past, and then enter the enclosures during a supervised session where guests can offer snacks if the foxes choose to approach.

THE CONTEXT

A Brief Lesson in Fur-Farming History

Alongside animal introductions, the guide provides a concise account of the foxes’ past and the broader history of fur farming to frame the sanctuary’s mission.

THE ENCOUNTER

Private, Small-Group Interaction

Designed for privacy and reduced stress to the animals, the excursion is limited to a single group of up to four people and emphasizes voluntary interactions—physical contact is never forced.

What the day feels like

What the hour feels like

The hour unfolds as a focused, private visit: a short education session establishes context about the foxes and fur farming, then the group steps into the animals’ space under supervision to offer snacks and observe behavior at close range—always on the foxes’ terms.
