🔺 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 Enoch

  • Sweet baby. Love how you give even the smallest of creatures the respect and care they need. Hopefully the rabbit population will rebound soon.
  • @marystohr4870
    Thank you for caring for all the critters in need. You are truly appreciated. We started pip watch today. Big Bear Lake Bald Eagles
  • @lalaprz918
    I love the little cottontails! I always have a bunch in my yard in the spring and summer and I love watching them
  • @kathykay6602
    The noises he makes sucking the milk is just adorable....Susan is the best with the babies!
  • @breathedeep
    So little. So cute. So needed in its habitat to help its population thrive. As always Great job! 🙌🏽🙌🏽🙌🏽🙌🏽🙏🏽🙏🏽❤️
  • I've heard cotton tail rabbits are very hard to raise you make it look easy - but here in south Florida I never see any of these - its a pleasure to see you feed him - that's not something I ever get to see - thank you for all you do I know it's demanding to say the least - you two are amazing!! - the world could use more good people like you two!! 🐇🐰❤
  • Such a beautiful creature…Thanks to the rescuer and you!❤🐰
  • I love the way Martin loves on Susan and praises her amazing talents! You both are such an inspiration to me! ❤🙏
  • OMG SOOO OVERCUTE! Thanks so much for your great honorable job! 😍😍😍🥰🥰🥰
  • I hope it doesn't get run over in that road. They are so adorable. I took a lot of them away from my cats and Rat Terrier and released them elsewhere. They were so full of seed ticks. I felt really bad for them. I just hope they all survived afterward. We have a lot of them here in Georgia.
  • @bloeckmoep
    Ahh, the feeling when you have a successful release. 👍😉
  • @kathybruce100
    I enjoy your channel so much. The sound is great..could even hear baby cotton having breakfast! The historic road trip was interesting. Utah is beautiful country with quite the history. Thank you Martin & Susan!
