Thank you everyone for your kind comments and sympathy. Unfortunately not every animal that comes into my care can be healed and returned to the wild. When any wild animal that comes into my rescue center cannot be returned to the wild, I am very limited as to what I can do with them. If the injuries are minor, but yet non-releasable the animal can be placed in a licensed educational or zoological facility. If they cannot be placed in such a facility, by federal law we must euthanize them. If I do not follow these regulations to the letter, my state and federal licenses will be revoked and I will no longer be allowed to help the sick and injured wildlife that I care so much about. The injury to this great horned owls wing was severe enough that more than half of the wing would have had to be amputated, which means by federal law he was not a candidate to become a wildlife ambassador. For the past 50 years I have never wanted to share with anyone the pain that I feel every time I’ve had to put one of these beautiful creatures to sleep. That is both private and incredibly painful but I have been encouraged that people need to understand the realities that I face. I am very grateful for your kind comments. Sincerely, Martin Tyner
Thank you for what you do. I feel your pain, truly. For the past 21 years I have been an Aeromedical Helicopter Pilot. There are times when our outcomes are not what we would have hoped for. I deal with it by knowing that we gave them our best.
So sorry for the loss of your little friend; you did everything you could for him. At least he knew care and compassion in his last hours instead of pain and suffering. Thank you for what you do.
Clackamas comm. Coll. used to have an exhibit, it got moved to Estacada(Oregon) and then some place in southern OR. They birds(raptors) with assorted injuries. I don't know what happened to them? God bless, protect and interceed, in Jesus's name amen...
I know how hard this must be for you, but left alone, the poor owl would die a slow, painful death of starvation, right, or maybe be eaten alive by something that found him incapacitated and took advantage? You're doing a fine thing by ending his suffering, and though we wish these things would never happen, accidents happen all the time to animals and people alike. Thanks for all you do for the animals who can't speak for themselves, especially the hard things. Thanks for sharing both the good and the bad with us so everyone has a realistic picture. I'm sorry for your loss and for owl, but thank you for the video. This owl was blessed to have you in his life and, in his toughest hour, find his way to a peaceful, painless and quick end. Don't think of it as a bad day, think of it as a day you honored a beautiful, brave and worthy animal with what he would have wanted if he could have told you. May God continue to bless you and the animals with your good work.
So true, same with pets when they are past helping. it's hard every time, but the joyous times with animals so outweigh the bad that we keep doing it! They teach us so much, by their living and their dying. Love your channel, the good and the not so easy to watch.
I'm just going to say I totally agree with you you took half the words out of my mouth a beautiful thing they do with God's creaturesI just thank God we have people like Martin that do the job that he does God bless
I drove through herds of sheep in the Riggins Idaho 50 years ago when I lived there. If you want a stress free life live on the moon. No matter where you go man and animal will find you. I am transfixed with the birds on the hunt. Thank you
Oh Martin my heart is broken too!Such a magnificent bird.....what a shame he could not be saved but I know Martin did all he could to save his precious animals.Thank you Martin for your heart of gold.I watch all your videos....I love them all....what a privilege to be able to care for them.Thank you.
Truly sorry he couldn't be saved. God Bless people like you who look after such beautiful and rare creatures. I'm not a bird person, but I do like the large birds.
He IS BEAUTIFUL! Bless his little heart. I loved him when you first showed that adorable bird. I'm so sorry you get hurt when you have to have mercy on these wonderful creatures, but he was better to have had you to help him to quickly be out of pain and die so slowly out there. Bless you, Martin. 💖
I work in a 24-hr emergency vet hospital. An injured barred owl was brought in last week. Thanks to your videos, I was confident enough to handle him safely during his stay with us before he went off to a local rehabber. You touch more animal lives indirectly than the thousands you save with your own two hands. Thank you for everything you do!
Hi again! Oh Martin I can only imagine how difficult that was for you and now knowing how you are I'm sure every single time you can't save something it is always the same for you. Such a lovely creature. As you explained the critters have come in closer for a better guarantee of winter good which puts them closer to the dangerous obstacles that they don't understand. The blessing is you got to him quickly so his time of suffering was so much less. I am always reminded for those of us who have animals or they are part of one's life work that death is ever present as a part of life. And so it goes with all living things the circle of life. You did your job Martin in the most caring loving way possible and as we know sometimes that must give us the peace that is enough. Thanks be to those folks who donated that camera so we can go right along with you. Look forward to the next times with you Martin! God bless...
When we love something. It means doing the right thing. No matter how much it hurts. Because the right thing to do is having to say good bye. Please never stop doing what’s right. Love what you and your family do. Love from Australia
Your empathy for animals is exemplary. Your education and skill, coupled with true selflessness and your empathy really makes a difference to these beautiful animals. There are many 'well meaning' people that aren't so smart and don't do the correct thing when they come across an injured animal, or there are real heard-hearted selfish people which turn a blind eye. It is so good to see smart, educated persons with compassion and education. When you look into the eyes of these birds, the owl and the eagles and hawks, anyone can see the intelligence behind those eyes. Most of the birds which I see you help, usually don't struggle or fight once they realize you are there to help. Yes, they may react instinctively but it is obvious they have more intellect than we humans realize. Thank you for the sacrifice of your time, effort, and money. Also, we need to work to change the laws to preserve these animals by placing them with knowledgable, educated foster homes. It is criminal to euthanize an animal that may be able to live with a disability in captivity/care.
Oh Martin. Your love and respect for your kiddos comes through loud and clear in your videos. Such a beautiful animal. So sorry you could not save him, but you did do the right thing and ended his suffering. God bless you and the work you do.
Beautiful creatures raptors are, no matter how many thank you's you get it will never relay the good you are doing especially through education! There cannot be dark without light nor good without bad...nature is as cruel as it is beautiful so Kudos to you and your wonderful foundation!!
Amazing job if nothing else we adapt no matter what creatures we are . Wonderfully done 🙌👍 ty for everything..n to whomever donated these awesome tools.🤩🤗🤗🤩
Martin, I'm new to your TH-cam channel and the only thing that I can say is thank you for what you do. It definitely takes an extraordinary person with an extraordinary gift to do what you do!...
Heartbreaking and so tragic for you to have lost the opportunity to heal and then release this beautiful guy. The work you do on behalf of the wild is truly beautiful and admirable. Thank you
Thank you for your true honesty in this video - - this planet can use more people like yourself - -it breaks my heart too so see such brilliant creature damaged beyond help. I hope it helps you a bit.
Best wishes from Germany for your care and your passion for your little boys and girls. Your videos show, that these wonderful creatures appreciate your work getting existential help. We can see their patience in their eyes. With you, their wild life became and becomes a better world.
That owl was lucky to have been found and taken care of by you Martin. We had a great horned hit by a car here in Ontario Canada by Lake Erie. It did die but was taken for help to a wildlife facility nearby. Too much damage to save it but was it ever big and beautiful. Also saw al screech owl downed by some crows. I scared off the crows and put my coat on the owl and took it to our shop. We warmed it on the space heater in a box and it was still. Later when we opened the box we were met with huge talons. lol It was fall and again called our wildlife refuge friends and they came and took it. Sue Fowler wore gloves to pick t up. That one did survive. The crows had damaged the top of its head and made it bleed a bit but it was not enough to kill it. I have been a bird watcher for many years and love what you are doing. God Bless all you do.
Although that owl did not survive the accident. Because of you, we got to see and appreciate just how truly beautiful that owl was. Most of us would never be able to come that close or be able to see what you see. I was so taken by the owls piercing yellow eyes and beautiful luxurious feathers. I would have never been able to see how truly stunning that owl was if it wasn't for you and teaching us about this magnificent creature. Your footage of the owl was perfect and thank you again.
Bad news is part of rescuing and we totally understand. You have a tough job being there making those decisions and seeing those sad situations. You're a good man, Martin. Not to earn any kudos but I changed my Amazon Smile account to support your efforts. I am currently kicking breast cancer's butt and utilizing Amazon often. I am glad you will benefit to some small degree. God Bless you, Susan and your hard work.
God bless you for trying to save this beautiful stunning owl he knew you were trying to do your best for him you could see it in his eyes when you snuggled him he looked so peaceful and at ease at least you gave him peace and he had a good friend and did not die alone god Bless X

I'm so sorry Martin.. really. I went through that in a center for wildlife and each time my heart would break a little more... Thank you for your honnesty and all that you do for these beautiful birds . Hugs to you, your lovely wife .
@@GowildlifeOrg It's only normal , we did the same job and I loved every minute of it. Learned so much observing the raptors, I think that I have a very soft spot for barn owls, fascinating creatures !
I appreciated your warning, I decided to watch through any way. Glad the Go Pro was put to use, it was a cool view when the owl looked up at you as you held him.
Oh my😥 that beautiful beautiful creature. I could tell just by looking in his eyes that he was in a lot of pain. He didnt have any fight left in him. Poor little guy. I know that was the part of your job that you hate the most Martin but you did the right thing no matter how much you wanted to save his life. You are a great guy Martin and u have a big heart and those raptors living all around you are lucky to have u looking out for them.
Thanks again Martin for another incredible video. So glad you were able to find him and end his suffering in such a humane and respectful manner. Beautiful area! God bless you.
Thank you for everything you do even in the tough times I'm sorry your day was a rough one. You are all such good people thank you again for what you do for our country and its creatures.
Dearest Martin, thank you for finding the courage to share this story. It happens and we need to be aware of that, so thank you. The go-pro worked wonders, love the way we got to see the little fellow when you held him to your chest. I laughed when you were talking about the directions that were given to you ... reminds me of my Oklahoma days. "Turn left where Joe's barn burned down 15 years ago." lol Those were the good old days, glad to see some people still live them. Thank you for the video and sharing your thoughts and knowledge.
So sad 😭... thank you Martin for your amazing work. RIP beautiful owl... wish the badly injured ones could be saved and kept legally as educational sanctuary birds.
Thank you for sharing the life of this beautiful great horned owl so we can love very shortly and cry with you 😭 We will be together with all our animals in heaven.
Everyone watching this video, please watch the whole ad. That is the only way to monetize a content provider. Pressing skip ad does not off them any funding and people like this man certainly deserve it
Around 4:30-5:30 yesterday a hawk was in my back yard behind the Dairy Queen. A really great sight to see up close and it really seemed to be unafraid. I worry when they come down into the town area to hunt which I have seen several times in my yard alone last year, but the fact that they seem to be thriving in this great area is fantastic. Thanks for the share!
Heartbreaking, but this magnificent creature was so lucky someone spotted him, reported him to you, and you put him out of his suffering quickly. Thank you so much for all you do(from the UK), and for showing us around your patch. You continually show the best of humanity when it seems we are awash with the very worst...
Part of the reason all of us love you so much is because of your love for these beautiful birds!! Your sadness over the outcome of this owl shows why you are so good at rescuing!! Merriest of Christmases to you and your family!!
Hi. Thx for the ride-along & telling us about the rural area & it's inhabitants 👉 birds, critters, sheep. so sorry about gho 😧 😔but thank you for being there for him. 😚🙏
Please watch the full ads to monetize his videos. Pressing skip ad will not monetize the video and this man deserves every penny for the extraordinary efforts and rehabilitations he performs to rescue these magnificent creatures.
Oh I’m so sorry you had to deal with bad news about this guy 💔 Thank God for you and all that you do. At least he didn’t have to suffer a long, painful, drawn-out death. You did the kindest thing for him, even though it crushed your heart. You are truly an angel here on Earth to help these guys in their hour of deepest need. (I do realize I am commenting on a 2.5+ year video, but I couldn’t not leave you a note after watching this & hearing the heartbreak in your voice. Thank you again for helping this beautiful owl ✨💫🦉🌈✨)
I found a baby Great Horned Owl in northern Michigan. The exact same things happened to him. The Raptor Center helped us and they said he was the most beautiful owl they had ad ever seen.
Thank you so much for all you do!! It is painful to know he can’t be saved, but great full you were able to get him out of pain and suffering and to pass safe and cared for. RIP sweet owl!!
Oh Martin, I'm so sorry. I am certain that for as much as you expect these situations, it still hurts you. My sympathies to you on this unfortunate reality, and I can only hope you're comforted by the fact that you saved him from a much worse death.
So sorry, Martin. I love those raptors and animals that you bring into your life everyday. What a beautiful owl. You don't get use to having to put these beautiful creatures down. Thank you for all you do. P.S. Love your book.
In suffering this difficult task, you set him free of suffering. Thank you, sir, for caring so much. The owl hid his pain so well, not one word of complaint. Must have been incredibly painful though... so you rescued him from further harm.
Very sad I love owls and raptors all song birds , I wish there was a way to heal that wing and let that owl live .Such a beautiful bird brings tears to my eyes very sad.
Martin as long as I have been watching your wonderful and educational videos, my friend,..you save more than you have to put down and I like so many appreciate you and what you are doing to save and return these magnificent birds...continued success Bob in Pittsburgh..oh in case you didn`t know we for past several years have bald eagles living along our rivers here and nesting and have cameras set up to watch the babies and take pictures of these great birds..(up away from anyone on a hill area)..plus for a long time at the University of Pittsburgh on top of the cathedral of learning building many generations of peregrine falcons have made it their home..there is a observation area scientists and students can count and check their vitals and keep them in good health..there are tons of pigeons all around so they are well fed..thanks again

Those big gorgeous eyes
Agreed!
Rest in peace, beautiful, special male owl. Great job, Martin, picking him up and treating him with dignity.
Thank you Julie, we appreciate your concern.
What a presence. Heart wrenching, he was so vibrant in spite of the wounding. Hope his beautiful soul moved quickly to better skies free of pain...
We hope so too. Thank you for your concern.
Thank you for getting him to an easier final and humane destination than starving to death on the side of the Road. Blessings~~~~
Thank you for your concern.

He didn't suffer as long as he would've. I'm glad someone saw him. He was beautiful!
That is heartbreaking. POOR darling owl. You helped stop his suffering. Thank you for doing the kindest and bravest thing XXX

Not a good day...
I am so so sorry for you and the owl. Thank you for doing what you must in order to have the Owl not suffer. People most always drive way to fast.
Thank you for your concern
What a beautiful part of the country you live in.
It has its perks for sure!
You what you can do and show compassion when you can. What you did is saved him from starving to death in distress. He was a gorgeous owl.
Thank you for your interest and concern
Thank you for caring...at least he didn't suffer...he was gorgeous...my tears

Hi again! Oh Martin I can only imagine how difficult that was for you and now knowing how you are I'm sure every single time you can't save something it is always the same for you. Such a lovely creature. As you explained the critters have come in closer for a better guarantee of winter good which puts them closer to the dangerous obstacles that they don't understand.

You did your job Martin in the most caring loving way possible and as we know sometimes that must give us the peace that is enough. Thanks be to those folks who donated that camera so we can go right along with you. Look forward to the next times with you Martin! God bless...
PS the word good should be food. Silly phone!
Thanks CC, it was great to have the cameras to tell the tale, we just wish the ending had been better news.
Owls has such big beautiful eyes , you could tell he understood you when you explained his injury and that was very sad, poor baby
Every single thing you do comes from love. Thank you Martin .x
What a shame. I have no other words for that loss and now I cry for that bird. At least you tried to help it. Thank you.

Your empathy for animals is exemplary. Your education and skill, coupled with true selflessness and your empathy really makes a difference to these beautiful animals.
There are many 'well meaning' people that aren't so smart and don't do the correct thing when they come across an injured animal, or there are real heard-hearted selfish people which turn a blind eye.
It is so good to see smart, educated persons with compassion and education.

Most of the birds which I see you help, usually don't struggle or fight once they realize you are there to help. Yes, they may react instinctively but it is obvious they have more intellect than we humans realize.
Thank you for the sacrifice of your time, effort, and money.
Also, we need to work to change the laws to preserve these animals by placing them with knowledgable, educated foster homes. It is criminal to euthanize an animal that may be able to live with a disability in captivity/care.
Thank you for your concern and kind words. Not always easy working with the critters.
Oh Martin. Your love and respect for your kiddos comes through loud and clear in your videos. Such a beautiful animal. So sorry you could not save him, but you did do the right thing and ended his suffering. God bless you and the work you do.
Good days and bad days...
Thank you for your honesty, and for caring enough to make the hard decision.
Thank you Laurel, we appreciate your interest and concern.
Very sad but it's the reality of life. Thank you for doing what had to be done and making sure the owl did not suffer.
Beautiful creatures raptors are, no matter how many thank you's you get it will never relay the good you are doing especially through education! There cannot be dark without light nor good without bad...nature is as cruel as it is beautiful so Kudos to you and your wonderful foundation!!
Agreed, education is key.
Nature was not cruel here; it was an irresponsible driver. Another life snuffed out 😖😰
Amazing job if nothing else we adapt no matter what creatures we are . Wonderfully done 🙌👍 ty for everything..n to whomever donated these awesome tools.🤩🤗🤗🤩

You are a great guy Martin and u have a big heart and those raptors living all around you are lucky to have u looking out for them.
Thank you Tara, we appreciate your concern.
8:42 i cannot stand how he just turned and looked at us... Ugh im dying of how cute he looks. Rip
Thank you for your interest and concern
Thanks again Martin for another incredible video. So glad you were able to find him and end his suffering in such a humane and respectful manner. Beautiful area! God bless you.
Thank you for your concern, Terri.
Thank you for everything you do even in the tough times I'm sorry your day was a rough one. You are all such good people thank you again for what you do for our country and its creatures.
Thank you for your concern, Anna.
Thank you for sharing the truth about this situation. Thank you for putting the owl down humanely.
God bless you Martin! 🙏🏼😢♥️
Dearest Martin, thank you for finding the courage to share this story. It happens and we need to be aware of that, so thank you.
The go-pro worked wonders, love the way we got to see the little fellow when you held him to your chest.
I laughed when you were talking about the directions that were given to you ... reminds me of my Oklahoma days. "Turn left where Joe's barn burned down 15 years ago." lol Those were the good old days, glad to see some people still live them.
Thank you for the video and sharing your thoughts and knowledge.
Thank you for your interest and concern
So sad 😭... thank you Martin for your amazing work. RIP beautiful owl... wish the badly injured ones could be saved and kept legally as educational sanctuary birds.
Thank you for your concern.
Thank you for sharing the life of this beautiful great horned owl so we can love very shortly and cry with you 😭
We will be together with all our animals in heaven.
Thank you for your concern.
What a Majestic Creature, Love Owls !
We love them too.
Everyone watching this video, please watch the whole ad. That is the only way to monetize a content provider. Pressing skip ad does not off them any funding and people like this man certainly deserve it
I hope you gave him the biggest kiss and thanked him for being in this world before he passed. So gutted.
Not a good day
what a beautiful face! those eyes.
Agreed, owls are beautiful!
Around 4:30-5:30 yesterday a hawk was in my back yard behind the Dairy Queen. A really great sight to see up close and it really seemed to be unafraid. I worry when they come down into the town area to hunt which I have seen several times in my yard alone last year, but the fact that they seem to be thriving in this great area is fantastic. Thanks for the share!
Good to know! Thriving hawks are the best kind!
You are such a nice human. I love watching your videos from Australia
Thank you, we're glad you are enjoying the vids! Greetings back to Australia!
Heartbreaking, but this magnificent creature was so lucky someone spotted him, reported him to you, and you put him out of his suffering quickly. Thank you so much for all you do(from the UK), and for showing us around your patch. You continually show the best of humanity when it seems we are awash with the very worst...
Thank you for your concern. Glad you enjoyed seeing a little of Cedar City all the way from the UK!
Heartbreaking! Thank you, first and foremost, for loving this bird. And for doing the very hard work, which is a part of your calling.

Thank you for your concern, Debsza.
Please watch the full ads to monetize his videos. Pressing skip ad will not monetize the video and this man deserves every penny for the extraordinary efforts and rehabilitations he performs to rescue these magnificent creatures.
Thank you for what you do 😔.
Thanks for your interest and concern
Oh I’m so sorry you had to deal with bad news about this guy 💔 Thank God for you and all that you do. At least he didn’t have to suffer a long, painful, drawn-out death. You did the kindest thing for him, even though it crushed your heart. You are truly an angel here on Earth to help these guys in their hour of deepest need. (I do realize I am commenting on a 2.5+ year video, but I couldn’t not leave you a note after watching this & hearing the heartbreak in your voice. Thank you again for helping this beautiful owl ✨💫🦉🌈✨)
I found a baby Great Horned Owl in northern Michigan. The exact same things happened to him. The Raptor Center helped us and they said he was the most beautiful owl they had ad ever seen.
It's not easy in the wild
Thanks for the effort.

One way or another to get there!
I'm so sorry, I know the heartache of having to send a creature Home to Creator. Keeping you in my prayers....
Thank you for your concern, Lee Ann.
In suffering this difficult task, you set him free of suffering. Thank you, sir, for caring so much. The owl hid his pain so well, not one word of complaint. Must have been incredibly painful though... so you rescued him from further harm.
Thank you for your concern.
So sad & such a beauty!
Thank you for your concern.
Beautiful and Sad. Thank You. 🦉❤️

Good days and bad days...
Martin as long as I have been watching your wonderful and educational videos, my friend,..you save more than you have to put down and I like so many appreciate you and what you are doing to save and return these magnificent birds...continued success Bob in Pittsburgh..oh in case you didn`t know we for past several years have bald eagles living along our rivers here and nesting and have cameras set up to watch the babies and take pictures of these great birds..(up away from anyone on a hill area)..plus for a long time at the University of Pittsburgh on top of the cathedral of learning building many generations of peregrine falcons have made it their home..there is a observation area scientists and students can count and check their vitals and keep them in good health..there are tons of pigeons all around so they are well fed..thanks again
Thanks Bob, good to hear of places with plenty of raptors!
So beautiful.
