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.

we always want more videos
Good to hear! Thank you!
Looks like her bells not helping her stealth.
Does the bird take off by its self once it sees prey???
What an amazing dive she took !! I love the slow motion clips... Her markings are absolutely beautiful.. So much detail God put into these amazing creatures 💜 You guys are Wonderful ! God Bless You 🙏
Thank you Rhonda, glad you enjoyed the video
I love that little tail shake every time she lands. Adorable
She is quite a girl!
This is good ASMR, too. Crunching footsteps, the jingling bells... I like it.
Thanks to you guys for such a good and honest video, not just a highlight reel of successful catches. This is what falconry is all about.
Thanks for the nice feedback, more to come still, we're glad you enjoyed.
I have love Belle from the moment you first took her out of her crate. She is such a sweet bird. I can't wait for a video where catches a Jack rabbit. She is amazing.
She's getting it done!
Your left arm must be very strong. You make it look like nothing to hold her up for quite some time.
Yes more falconry videos! Thank you so much.
Glad you enjoy!
I was thinking that video was a little long, but I would try it out. I was wrong. It finished and I was like, no wait! I want more!! Never saw anything like it - Belle was amazing, you all got a good workout, wore me out just watching! And I learned a whole lot about this. No wonder its hard on the young birds at first. Hunting is not easy, and it like every important skill in life, takes time to develop the skills and strength to do it well. Thank you, Martin and Susan, for sharing such an exciting outing! More please!
We used to think things were too long too, but we couldn't think of a good reason to edit either since people can skip ahead or skim through.
Exactly. You don't well we, those of us who don't do Falconry, we don't fully understand how hard it is for them. It's hard for Belle and she has HUGE advantage over the wild Hawks. Even though she's an invasive predator here. She couldn't go wild. A game warden would K1LL her soon as they saw her!!
But then I have to remember Harris Hawks don't usually hunt alone. They hunt in groups and they all eat. But with Belle, she's not trying to hunt on the verge of starving. Litteraly. Some of the wild ones, especially first year babies, some have been hunting everyday and coming up with nothing getting weaker and weaker!!
Them, IFFFF they are lucky, Martin gets the call to go get them or someone picks them up and calls the game warden or whomever to get it help because it's about to die!
They have to use energy they don't have because odds are it's been a while since they've eaten!! To fly overhead looking and hunting. Like Martin said Belle has her human perch to carry her
Plus the wild Hawks don't have anyone with a stick trumping through running them out of the thick bushes
The rabbits well Hares, they are not really rabbits they're hidden in the thick bushes thinking they're safe, which IF they would stay put they are safe. But they don't know this. They hear noise coming at them trumping on the ground through the bushes. They have no clue there's a hawk anywhere close because they haven't seen her yet. She's still riding her human perch 😀
Hare gets scared, it doesn't know what is coming at it through the bushes on the ground so it runs out trying to get somewhere else to hide. Then a hawk appears out of nowhere. It's gotten too far from the bush it was just in to go back. Maybe it ran away from it's hole, that gives Belle her advantage
I LOVE Hawks and Eagles well all raptors but Hawks and especially Eagles have a special place 😀
I found a video back a few years ago of Golden Eagles hunting. It was mesmerizing!! The photographer deserved to win the lottery with some of the footage he/she got!!
It showed clear as day. A huge Golden Eagle looking like a big airplane with it's shadow, drop down from what seemed like nowhere on this baby mountain goat. The mother was uphill and came flying down but was too late! The eagle snatched the baby goat and pulled it off. You could hear it crying as the eagle flew a little ways and then dropped it and went into a full stoop after it. Amazing!! I LOVE watching them!!
Too bad a $+UPID RETA®D WH0®€ messed it up where nobody can now film Scout. He won't allow anyone else but Martin near him. Even Susan has to stay away from him!! I would love to see him hunting but being nobody wants to be attacked by him I guess we never will lol can't blame them
So beautiful where you live. Love it. Belle is beautiful. Great filming, Susan.
Thanks Julie!
Truly a Master Falconer
Martin has been working with critters over 50 years!
Belle's awesome!! She's thrilling when hunting....beautiful to watch.
Agreed!
Wonderful Video 👍🏻👍🏻
hi i dont go on the computer much at all , but just came across you by chance . i am absolutely amazed with what you do with all the birds ,im from the uk and spent a little bit of time watching a falconer called ben potter from thirsk , i thought he was good but to watch you save all these birds and send them back to the wild is so much better than a show.i look forward everyday to watching your birds oh and your dog hes great .
Thank you Suzanne, we appreciate your interest, glad you chanced upon our channel!
You make this look easy but I am sure your arm and shoulder must hurt after holding your arm up in that position with the large bird on it. The relationship between you and the bird is amazing! Thanks so much for sharing this with us.
Martin has had a bird on his arm since he was 12!
@@GowildlifeOrg Yes it is amazing! Like I said he makes it look easy but I know it isn't! I really admire you both for your dedication to wildlife this is one of my favorite channels!
I love her jingle bells she must love her hunting time
Amazing Video! Loving all you all do. Thank you for sharing this with us all.
Thank you, we appreciate your interest
There is some other falconer who makes youtube videos. He isn't even respectful to his falcon who scored the kill. He just takes it away. Thank you so much for all that you do, and for respecting God's creations. I love to see how much you love these beautiful animals. If I were a multi-millionaire, I would make you one too.
Thank you for your interest
Hi again! Able to watch today and there you all are!!! So happy to see special Belle had been doing so good. And you both are surely getting your exercise fast walking the desert! Amazing how great you did Susan getting all the tape. Wonderful to have the opportunity to go along with you. Thx for sharing Belle' s practice time. Hope all is good with you both...
Glad you enjoyed!
Are there snakes and other critters in those bushes besides rabbits? I just love Belle what a sweetheart. Thanks guys for the videos. ❤️
There are other critters around, not a lot of snakes.
Belle is very good at spotting them.
She is amazing.
Please remain 🙏 Blessed 🛐/🥀Safe🌷/🤔Inspired😊/🤗Encouraged😍/💜Fervent♥️/🦅Diligent🦉 for the cause❕❕❕❕‼️‼️‼️‼️
Susan-you are very skilled with that camera-I would be tripping over the sage bushes etc because I would be busy watching Belle.
It's rough terrain!
Belle standing on a living walking sagarro tree .great.🦇🦇🦇🦇🐱🐱🐱🦅😊😊💖👍👍
She's quite a hawk!
If you ever need any donations to help with supporting the injured birds feel free to reach out. Great videos. Thanks for all your hard work and thank you Ms belle
Thank you David, you can learn more at www.gowildlife.org
Does anyone else want to see him hunt with scout?
Noted!
Yes
Does your arm get tired holding Belle? I so enjoy watching Belle she is beautiful and so majestic. I so admire the devotion you and Susan have for each other and your critters.
Thank you for your interest
Belle: "Martin, why are you so slow? Come on flush me some rabbits!"
Thanks for this video, its good to be back from service, sorry I could not review. 😆😆😆😆
She's all aces at it now!
great video but does the bell alert the rabbits she in coming I kind of think it would if I'm wrong please tell me why not
The bells are for Martin to be able to find her if she is far away when she gets a rabbit. Since she gets a whole lotta rabbits, bells don't seem to hinder. ;-)
Will you take the bells off of her when she's fully trained? I imagine the rabbits can hear her coming at the moment! She's amazing! Sure would love to see a hunting trip with Scout! Thanks!
The bells will always stay on, they help track her if she is far off when she catches a rabbit.
Most rabbits who hear those bells won't be around to spread the news.
That's exactly what I just posted. The rabbits hear her coming
Southwest Wildlife Foundation of Utah
How do you call her back and hrtttfrrrBy the way great video?....
😊🙌🏾🦅
😎
I think you guys all got your exercise that morning! Are there snakes and stuff around there to watch for? I can't imagine how I would watch the path, the bird and the rabbits all at the same time, think I'd probably be tripping all over the place. Where I live, wherever there are rodents, there are snakes... They do try to stay out of your way though. She's lovely. Thanks for sharing your special relationship with us! LOL, I'm just not sure great stories about vomit is a marketing tool ...
Lots of miles in the desert! Thanks for watching!
Sue gets really great shots of your falcon with the sun coming through the feathers. If your falcon gets a rabbit, do you let it feed on it or do you pick it up & take it home for her to feed on it later?
Thank you Chuck! Belle is a Harris Hawk. She gets some of her catches then the rest to saved for critter feed. Martin always makes a trade though, so Belle doesn't really notice the catch being taken away.
Lovely bird I’m thinking of getting one I know it’s a Commitment I need to learn a lot before I even built the mews if that’s the right word. Thanks for a great video
It is a commitment for sure, sounds like you are giving it good thought. Best of luck in your studies!
👍👍👍👍😭😭😭👍👍🌹🌹
Would you get the same sense of gratification hawking with belle IF she was perched perhaps on a wide rimmed sunhat for your healths sake & Belle having the advantage of being perched at least 1-2 feet higher, than your current lower than shoulder level? I say this because it is so obvious that she loves being free to hawk with you by her side. She would be honing her hunting skills in no time & stocking up the freezer whilst having one on one fun time with her favourite guy. I also need to say that you guys are only as old as you feel. I know of some kids that don't have the energy that you have Martin. No put downs to anyone at all but being a tad more mature & caring for wild birds that you guys do is a dream job for some & a blessing to the birds that you have cared for. I love how you interact with the birds. It proves that love is definitely a universal language & holds no bounds as the birds respond to you just from your tone of voice & your aura. Awesome guys!
Where there's rabbits there's gotta be rattle snakes....is that something your concerned about for belle and for yourselves walking casually through the desert like that?✌
Martin has been working with critters and wandering around over 50 years!
Why not try to raise rabbits Martin for Belle 😁😁😁 they reproduce very fast, however walking is good for your health. Watching all your videos.
We raise pigeons.
🦅What are the bells on her feet for? 🦅 I’m curious 🦅
🦅I’m also interested in learning about the raptures🦅
🦅I’m only experienced in Parrots and cockatoos🦅
🦅Thank you for another great video🦅
🦅Bell is such a beautiful bird🦅
🦜Your fellow bird lover🦜
@linda_parrot
Hi Linda, the bells are help track her if she is far off when she makes a kill.
Southwest Wildlife Foundation of Utah thank you
Do you think the Bell on her feet is what's keeping you from being able to get the rabbit guess when she's flying overhead so they can hear her coming and they hide
The rabbits don't perceive the sound of her bell as any threat. There are plenty of other hawk sounds that alert them of her approach.
My computer is down and I am not sure how long before my son fixes it. Anyway, I will try to write up some of my ideas on your web site , from my phone,in a day or so if my computer is not up and running!
Thank you Pamela!
Do you plan to make more hawking with Belle videos? I would love to see her in action now!
We hope to, yes, when the hunting season begins again.
A question I have is Bell handicapped at the start of her training with the bells on her feet? You stated starting her training in September but you released the video on June 7th, 2019. Was she trained almost a year?
The bells are for Martin to find her if she takes downs a catch far away. Her training is year round, it is a lifetime commitment.
She would be happy here... There is a rabbit plague... It's the best news for kites, because they have easy meals in the ones that die in the road, and for me, because I adore kites!!!! Unfortunately, for farmers it's a nightmare... We need some predators!!!!
Why doesn't Belle fly away from you for good? Are her wings clipped? I just read a little about training a hawk, so now I know. You must gave strong triceps holding your arm out so far for Belle. Was it hot outside when you made this video? Do those ties around her feet ever come off?
www.gowildlife.org/belle-the-harris-hawk
How long did it take you to get hurt trying to come back to you and when you take her out to go hunting
I would have thought that the birds would have to "clutch" hard in order to feel stable on a moving bouncing perch; but obviously Belle isn't doing this because if she did her talons could go through the glove ...
They are quite dexterous with their talons.
So she is trained to return to you when she hears the beeping? These videos where you get to show off your skills are very interesting.
She's returns to the whistle
The bells don't give the rabbits a heads up before she gets there?
Nope. They help Martin find her of she lands far away.
I have a question if you don't mind please? The bells on the bird. Don't they warn the prey that they birds are coming?
Hi Wendy, thanks for your interest. Seems like they would hinder, but they really don't register to the rabbits as anything to worry about.
@@GowildlifeOrg Thank you for taking the time to reply to my question. I appreciate it.
I'm just at 17 minutes & you might answer this question later, but just in case, why the bells? It seems to me that the bells would alert the rabbit giving it a couple of seconds to get away. So, why the bells on Belle?
The bells are for Martin to find Belle if she takes down an animal out of his sight.
How much is the book?? I might have my days and months mixed up but, where's Piper?? Did he get her after Belle or before?
There is more information here: www.gowildlife.org/healer-of-angels/
How is she going to have successful pursuit with bells ringing?
Will Belle get to the point where she is strong enough to soar and watch for rabbits from up high, like Scout does?
Julie Stevens: As far as I know Harris Hawks do not reach the same altitudes than golden eagles but yes belle will also be able to fly rather high in the sky. Then dive down onto her prey. For the exact altitudes of specific birds, Martin is your source to ask! 👍👍👍
@@bloeckmoep Thank you for replying so quickly! I was pretty sure if she did hunt by soaring, she would not be up among the golden eagles. :o)
Hi Julie, soaring is more about staying cool and recreating to Hawks and Eagles. Both generally hunt from perched on tree or power pole. Falcons are more likely to hunt from altitudes.
@@GowildlifeOrgthank you for the education. Hope you do post a video of one of your lectures.
Martin how do you prevent from getting lost out there ?
He's been wandering all his life!
Do you withhold food on hunting days?
It's more complex than food or not food. It's about ongoing training and weight management.
How would she hunt differently in a group of Hawk?
Why does Belle have bells on her legs?
I think the bell on her foot is alerting the rabbits.
That bell is going to alert the rabbits. To noticeable as far as hearing
The rabbits don't perceive the sound of her bell as any threat. There are plenty of other hawk sounds that alert them of her approach.
I'm curious, Belle has immature plumage with a haggard tail. Can you comment on that? OSH :-)
This was filmed last year when she was a young hawk
No rabbit, maybe teach her to catch a cat, just as many as rabbits
I love u my hero. Prov 12:10. The righteous one's are caring for the soul of their domestic animals. Yours aren't even tame lol. I finished now my 2nd free book. The true witness of Revelation-The rising of the son. 169 pgs. We really should get together with a publisher. Editor. I meant what i said on the donations and proceedings going to your rescue. But now I've added humans. Those who become true christians. It needs a charter. Legal establishment as scripture says. Those affected by d.e.w. weapons in Cali. Plus i wanna be able walk the streets give to those who move me or Lord leads too. After all i did write both books. Last took 60 days ish. Be able to share in that joy. A few tears also. I actually avoid your channel bro it pulls at my heart strings and my desire to help you. The amount i intend on getting from either book. Zero. Forbidden. For what it's worth.
Thanks Bill, we appreciate your support
Southwest Wildlife Foundation of Utah. Welcome. U can't tell me avoiding u out of shame. Learned the 5 d's of dodgeball. We are losing all of the life in our oceans. Millions of ppl are going to starve to death. Even dolphins bro. Birds dropping from the skies in droves. 5g kills them. Will us 2. I'm ready to die rather than see the world burn. 50 million babies aborted. 57 actually. It's why i do what i do like u do what u do. My new book tells all 100% accuracy free. The Lord gave me 3 dreams one night to give. They're in the book. A horrifying experience. If i post the link will you share and read? God save our innocent
