Our Mission
Founded in 1997 in Cedar City Utah, we are a 501c3 non-profit organization dedicated to wildlife rescue and rehabilitation, wildlife and environmental education, and the development of the Cedar Canyon Nature Park.
Rescue, Rehabilitate and Release
The Southwest Wildlife Foundation of Utah (SWF) cares for more than 100 sick, injured and orphaned native wildlife annually. Restoring them to health and returning them to the wild is our primary goal, but for those that cannot be released due to disabilities, the Cedar Canyon Nature Park (CCNP) can provide them with a permanent home in a natural setting while enhancing our visitors educational experience at the park.
Informing, Educating and Inspiring
The SWF provides over 100 educational programs reaching over 30,000 people annually. We believe providing educational outreach programs to schools, scout groups and community events, with focus on children and families, will make the greatest impact in preserving our wildlife, the environment, our public lands and our resources for future generations to enjoy.

At age nineteen, Martin was hired as curator of birds of prey at Busch Gardens, CA. He also worked in the movie and television industry training big cats, elephants, primates, sea mammals and raptors.
“One of my greatest childhood fantasies was the desire to create a personal friendship with a wild eagle. I found myself with a love and fascination for these powerful creatures.”
Martin Tyner is a federally licensed falconer, eagle falconer, wildlife rehabilitator, wildlife propagator, and wildlife and environmental educator.
He has been providing wildlife and environmental programs throughout the western United States, to schools, scouts and community groups for over fifty years.
Just came upon this older video of Belle and to see her and Martin now out hunting and interacting you can really see the beautiful bond they have. Just so amazing to witness🥰
Belle in the old days!
Martin you are greatest thing ever you need your own TV show seriously so many people could learn so much from I would be your biggest fan thanks again for all you and Susan do
He could put on a terrific TV show! Animal Planet should be interested.... Someone definitely needs to be in contact with them! I, for one, would instantly program it into my shows to be recorded,!!! It would be a good educational program as well as entertaining, which people seem to need. Following Belle's training.... Great idea! And... It could generate $$$..…. Both from the programming and from donations.
JayKB I know that's what I am talking about people would love him !!!!!!!!!
Thank you Sherry. To Martin it is all about the critters.
Southwest Wildlife Foundation of Utah thanks Susan for replying back you are wonderful also
TH-cam is TV to me so this is great. I don't watch "normal TV" Ever. boring and false.com so to speak.
You might think I am nuts, but the ''ANGELS'' are, you guys. WOW!
What an amazing video on my 33-year wedding anniversary. Love you guys, and that big doggy soul.❤❤❤👍👍👍
Happy Anniversary! Glad you enjoyed the video.
That beautiful lyrics is much suiting than Celine Dion singing the song. "Power of love".I love the sounds of nature. Nature is my GOD! Sir. The love and respect is mutual between you and animal friends.. You love them and giving them unconditional love and attention. In return, you get back twice as much. Whatever you do sir. Is amazing to us. Tons of love from yours truly and my entire family coming your way. To you and your lovely wife. There is special place in heaven for you and your lovely wife. We love you. So does Jesus. Amen.
Thank you Daniel
She is absolutely exquisite. And cute.
Agreed!
I am loving the intense inspection she is giving you. As you touched her breast the first time, I could almost hear her saying - "Hey! whoa, whoa, whoa, what are you doing? You hurt me and I will hurt you!" Then kind of changing to - "ok, that's not so bad."
Martin definitely has a way with the critters!
Circa 1600 gave me a good laugh. Thank you for that.
Martin is an old soul
Belle is beautiful and I look forward to the next video.
Good to hear!
I adore this hawk Belle. And, I just heard that she hatched on my birthday! 3/22. Wowza!!!!!
She is something for sure!
Hello Martin, Love watching your videos with all these beautiful birds you have rescued. You and your team do a super excellent job caring for these birds. These birds know that you're very trustworthy and feel very safe being in your presence. Sending hugs and thanks to you and your awesome team. 😘❤️👏
Thank you Sarah! We appreciate your interest, your kind words, and letting us know you are enjoying the videos!
I miss seeing you and your beautiful wife sit and chat with us about about the birds and open packages that you get and watching Cody run around and play.
We will be uploading a new unboxing video tomorrow! A short one, but nice to know they are welcome!
Those birds are so beautiful and your dog is so cute!! Praying that everything comes together for you ! God bless you and your wife! You are a God sent blessing!
Thank you Pamela, we're working hard.
Beautiful girl 💞. You and your wife are such special people. Bell is a perfect name for her
Thank you Dianne, we appreciate the kind feedback!
Love piper’s tear bars
He's a looker
Belle is a perfect name for her. She's beautiful!
Thanks CathyAnn, we think so too!
🔹🔷Beautiful! 🤩 I am awestruck!
Thank you!
I like the title of your video. I love the song."Have love will travel" by Jim Belushi and the sacred hearts.
It's great to see the video where you first got "Belle" Still new to the channel, watching some of the old video's :)
Belle's baby videos!
Belle is lovely indeed!
Agreed!
beautiful bird indeed. im surprised it doesnt bite
Oh she does! Always gotta respect the hawk!
Beautiful bird. I think she likes you😀 she looks like a Belle❤️ I can tell you are very Happy too! Glad to see that😀
Thanks Brenda, Belle does seem to suit her!
Hi Martin, a big hello to you & Susan from Dallas, Tx! love watching your videos & learning all about your birds & your fantastic organization! I just ordered your book a couple of days ago, look forward to its arrival! It worried me watching Belle flapping around hitting things in the room as she would get a little nervous sitting on your glove. To the inexperienced eye, this might cause a wing injury. I know they're way tougher than that ;-) Looks like Belle will be just fine but has Piper calmed down any since this was made? Hope to visit the nature park one day, keep up the great work! :-)
Hello back Amanda! Thanks for your kind words and your interest! We hope you enjoy our book! Belle is doing fantastic, we've plenty more videos about her to share. Just added another about Piper. Thanks for your interest and support!
Piper and Belle are both beautiful! I look forward to finding out more about them.
We agree, both beautiful!
Wow Martin and Susan she is very good putting on the leg bands! She is use to being handed by humans. No she's not! WOW is this Belle? Yes Yes! She is so good though! What a special gift you have Martin and Susan!
Belle as a baby!
@@GowildlifeOrg She is wonderful!
Harris Hawks always reminds me of home back in West Texas.
Sounds like she bring the South with her 😉
Like many others, thanks for sharing all of this with us out here who don't get to handle birds like this. Looking forward to seeing more from both Belle and Piper. Hopefully others as well. Best of luck in all you do.
Good to hear, thank you, we have more in the works!
I can't say it enough, you two are such special people! I love the name Belle, Thank you for sharing such a wonderful occasion.
Thanks Windy! Glad you enjoyed!
You two are the very best --- God Bless You for your total dedication and true love of these birds, National Geo - I hope you are watching - love to watch a new show with Martin his lovely wife and his amazing birds
Thank you Terri!
Absolutely beautiful! It is unfortunate that cameras just can't capture how truly beautiful these birds are. I get to see two male ambassador Harris hawks several times a week near where I work. They are quite impressive looking and among my favorites. (Though all birds are my favorites.) Here's to Belle! Looking forward to seeing her develop!
Seeing them in person is really something for sure!
AMAZING video. BEAUTIFUL birds. ALWAYS enjoy watching you interact with these birds. 💞❤
Great, glad to hear. Glad it wasn't too long for you!

birdie paladin!

Martin is a Falcon Whisperer.
Thanks for your interest
@@GowildlifeOrg I've been following for a while. How you interact with the birds (and other wildlife) is beyond my ability to describe. I tell a lot of people about this channel. Thank You for everything you do.
Great video, thank you.
I like Louisabell.
Noted!
Belle looked like she posed for the camera at ~ 19:51 😊
You to continue to amaze me. Belle is breathtakingly gorgeous. I hope and pray everything goes well with her. However I don't think I need to worry cuz she's in probably the best hands possible.
Hi Carrie, thanks for checking it out! We've got a whole lot more with Belle coming up!
Martin, circa 1600. HAHAHAHA!!!!! But I'm pretty dang old too...
He's an old soul...
I have a question. Actually, a couple of them. I have been wondering how you clean and sanitize the birds' flight areas. Also, how often? Realizing that the how often depends on how many residents there are. What is a safe disinfectant to use with these birds?
Hi Jay, thanks for your interest and good questions...we'll have to bring them up to Martin for future videos. Bird poop is another issue he has plenty of experience with!
8:24 my mom has a poodle like this but my mom's has reddish brown fur and his name is Kobe, but I call him Kobe wan Kenobi lol. My mom also has some birds but the annoying talking type of birds lol.
Kinda close, Kobi vs. Cody...
I'm curious. Is there a reason, coming from a captive breeding program, that serves the falconry community, that she wasn't handled prior to her arrival with you? Do they imprint on one handler? Is it easier to train a bird to hunt in its permanent home, then to train and handle them in the breeding facility then try to acclimatize them to a new location? I heard you talk about their emotional development in a creche situation with others her own age, would human interaction at that point cause later behavioral issues? Sorry for all the questions.. and thanks in advance.
Hi Katherine, good questions, thanks for your interest. We'll ask Martin to cover this in future videos.
Hi again! Quite the story Martin. So sorry of your loss of your bird friend of 29 years. What a wonderful long life with you. This lovely bird named Belle possibly is incredibly sweet and I'm sure will love having you as her friend too. I'm thinking I will always be in awe of you and your awesome connections with the birds...
PS. Wanted you to know I went to Rodent Pro to possibly get some of the natural creatures you feed.to send you. However there were warnings that popped up all over any of the addresses and I didn't want to take a chance getting hacked. So thought you should know. Is there another source out there? Thx as always...
Thanks for the word. RodentPro is okay, it was just the Amazon link over was not "https". It is now.
Ever think about breeding your own? Also if a chicken farm is near you guys: of the fertile eggs that hatch, only females are kept. We used to get male day olds (for Raptor Rehab) donated. Just a thought. Love your videos!
🤦🏻♀️ I couldn’t contain my very unladylike snort’ at the fact that you had to bring the bird to a “professional “ vet for a checkup and sign off. I understand it’s for legal reasons... and I do understand why.... but I did have to snort at it. Of all people on Earth.... a true definition master 🤷🏻♀️ sometimes you just gotta 🙄 at bureaucracy
Hi Laurie, thanks for your interest! So long as Belle is safe and well cared for we're happy.
I think your videos are so educational, as the comment below indicates. Do you welcome "tourists" to your place? I would love to see your beautiful birds of prey.
You are welcome to give us a call if you will be in the area, or even plan an outing. www.gowildlife.org
Harris Hawk. Not Harris’s Hawk? I’ve never seen a more beautiful Harris’s hawk! As a captive bred bird, is she still considered ‘wild”? Since she was never taught about the world or flight or hunting from parents, is she imprinted or can she be released one day? Falconry is a passion of mine. Did you have to pay for her?
Hi. Love the videos. I’m just curious how you can get so close to the bird with stroking the feet etc straight away? I’m not questioning any techniques. Just really interested to know. Thanks. Kevin
Martin has been working with the critters over 50 years, he makes it look far, far easier than it is.
The talons are the main danger but do none of the birds ever use their beaks as weapons to attack. As I notice how close your face/eyes are to their beaks?
Hi Ron, thanks for your interest. Beaks are definitely hazardous as well, just not as bad as the talons. Martin would not get so close to wild rehabilitation birds. And he's been doing this for quite awhile...over 50 years. Still has his nose, so skilled, fast and/or lucky ;-)
Looks like a ventriloquist's mannequin in the mirror..🙄
4:11 - is that a typo or is someone teasing Martin about his age? Circa 1600? 😆
Martin is an old soul
Has Susan ever had a falconry bird or ever think about getting one?
Almost, there was a Kestrel she worked with for awhile. And she works with Cirrus.
Do you have to return the Eagle feathers they lose back to the native Americans?
We abide by local and federal regulations.
Is BG ok? I noticed she is not listed among the ambassadors at the beginning.
Thanks for asking. We hope so, she's off in the wild.
Thanks for letting me know! I just watched the videos of her and she was so beautiful. I hope she's fine and maybe found a pretty little male goshawk - you must miss her a lot though!
That wasn't much of a vet exam of the Harris hawk as I'm familiar with bird exams.
Not much of an exam was needed.
Jolie1 I’m sure a. Martin knows what is needed, b. The vet knows what is needed, and c. What was needed WAS DONE!
Kris Barnes it is NEVER improper or out of order to ask questions!!!!!
Jolie1 I agree with you. The “Lamborghini of a bird” that she is, I’m sure the breeder had a thorough veterinary exam (and a health certificate) which is required in order to fly on a plane.
Harris hawks rule the world..
We love them!
@@GowildlifeOrg
Me too..I just became a master falconer..my first hawk was female red tail tyra..she was the hawk that
Is how hawks should be. I then got Harris hawk jade I still have her.
Tyra died of freak accident when I was gone to get my new dog..
I'm a tramaic brain injury survivor.
From 4 years ago..my falconry skills have takin huge hit..thank God jade was trained before injury.
I have no patients.. I cant remember my processes before.
I'm struggling..I took a big chance .
I took a finnish gos hawk with 2 previous owners.. he is crazy never calms down and screams on fist.
I think people hooded him and he hates it..you can not touch him anywhere. But feet..he broke two wing feathers before I have even hunted him yet.. I have horrible headaches everyday all day.
I have not done any training yet.
Because they keep messing with my pain meds..becuse of people abusing drugs..I'm not that guy.
I dont trust my decision making.
I had a gift of problem solving before tbi..now it gone..I'm frustrated angry..main symptoms
Of tbi.. any ideas.
We're sorry to hear about your ailments and that it keeps you from falconry.
Was its name ....Horrible?
Your new Harris hawk is very cute.
She still is!
