🔺 Our Mission 🔺
Founded in 1997 in Cedar City Utah, we are a 501c3 non-profit organization dedicated to wildlife rescue, rehabilitation and education.

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.

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.

Martin Tyner
Since age twelve, with a bird on his arm, Martin has captivated audiences sharing his knowledge and experience of his wildlife friends.

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.

“Grandpa believed in a very simple philosophy; that a person should get up every morning and do good. Doing good means that you do well for others and doing well means that you do good for yourself. There is nothing wrong with doing well, but Grandpa always believed in doing good.”

Martin's book, Healer of Angels, reflects back on his life: from a young boy terrified of birds to becoming the first man in North America licensed to train a wild golden eagle in the ancient art of falconry.

Through a heartwarming collection of true stories he describes his challenging transformation from a shy dyslexic teenager, to the founder and CEO of the Southwest Wild

    I don't remember ever seeing a rescue eat on his own so willingly -- the rainbow is certainly a sign of hope for the Red Tail!
  • Thank you for helping that young red tail. He almost seemed like he didn't want to go at the end. He was enjoying the free fresh pigeon you were giving him 😂
  • I always shed a tear when they get released back into the wild. Not because I'm sad, but so thankful that there are people like Martin that take the time and effort to help these beautiful animals and give them a second chance. Thank you so much! Hope to visit some time
  • I'm really glad there's still people out here who care enough about these animals to call somebody that knows what they're doing to help them out
  • @evevening7995
    Happy birthday Martin 🎂 it was great to see you feeding that red tail after rescuing him from the road, best wishes to you from England 🇬🇧 🤝🇺🇸
  • @Nina_Sophia
    Aaawww. That poor little guy was so hungry. He really gobbled up those mice. Wishing a wonderful birthday to Mr. Martin! 🥳 We are so thankful for all you do! 👍
  • @judil3294
    That baby looked so happy to be in Martin's warm arms getting a good meal. Than you for all you do.
  • Have you ever rescued a hawk, but it's behavior made you realize it had been raised by a human? It was the string you found on him, and the way he didn't fly away that made me wonder. So happy to see him go back to freedom in the wild. Happy Birthday 🎉❤
  • Happy birthday Martin. You're not allowed to die by the way, so 10,000,000 more. Walking along a highway with a juvenile redwing tucked in. You're both so wonderful, and every bird out there is grateful.
  • @kara.l6168
