Eagle Survived Collision with Car

[@GowildlifeOrg]

On January 6th, 2020, Susan and Martin visited the Utah Department of Wildlife Services to drop off two Golden Eagles that did not survive. They also picked up a Golden Eagle that had been hit by a car. The eagle was originally found lying on her side on the road. The eagle was moved off the road and woke up somewhat and was picked up by the Utah department of wildlife services and Martin was called. At first glance, Martin noted the eagle had been hit in the head badly and one eye looked very bad. This eagle acted completely tame and docile because of such severe injury. Martin did not think the eagle would survive. Taking it day by day, it wasn't until six days later that Martin saw some positive signs of recovery. The eagle began standing and was able to feed herself. On February 21st the eagle was released back to the wild. This eagle was the last rescued with our old Subaru Forester and the first released with the new Forester. Timestamps: 1:46 - January 6th: Martin takes the eagle out of the crate 8:05 - Martin advises why to "slow down for eagles" 9:08 - January 12th: Update on eagle's condition 10:40 - February 21: Release Day, Martin takes eagle from chamber 19:16 - Began release at Parowan Gap 25:54 - The eagle is released back into the wild To learn more about eagles, please visit: www.gowildlife.org/questions-about-eagles-faq/ Please Visit: www.gowildlife.org www.martintyner.com Please Help: www.gowildlife.org/get-involved/ Rodent Pro Gift Certificates: www.gowildlife.org/get-involved/#add Martin's Book: www.gowildlife.org/healer-of-angels/ Please Shop our Amazon Wishlist: smile.amazon.com/hz/charitylist/ls/28QB4BKFPV9XJ Please support us through Amazon Smile: smile.amazon.com/ch/87-0570151 _Mail Donations_ You are welcome to mail us a donation or call to ask any questions about our organization.

Magnificent, Thank you!

[@BlackFlagHeathen]

So sad those other two didn’t make it, but so happy for the beautiful girl who was able to recover against all odds and return to the wild where she belongs. You can’t save them all but you can save some of them, and that makes it all worth it. Bittersweet. 💔❤️

Lost my right eye 48 years ago and you're absolutely right about the difficulties with loss of depth perception, Martin. So very glad this Golden's eye was OK. They might not like you, but I don't think any of them "hate" you. Good to hear Belle voicing her opinion, too.

[@GowildlifeOrg]

We're glad she flew off with two healthy eyes too!

i've seen a lot of releases in youre videos and every time i wonder why dont these Eagles try to bite you? It's seems they dont even bother to do it :). Keep up youre great work! Many greetings from Germany.

[@Rosiee892]

Georgina Wong did you not watch the video? Golden eagles thrive in environments like the one she was released into. They don’t like trees.

[@AllenTax]

He clearly stated that when they are hurt they become docile.

[@damnyankeesdaughter5427]

Their self defense mechanism is their talons, not that they won’t bite, but they will use their feet first. In this case the eagle has a head injury, it can’t fight. Hope he gets the swelling in the brain down quickly

Ever since I read " My Side of the Mountain" as a kid I have absolutely loved raptors. I used to want to get into falconry so bad. I would love to do what you do and help rehab and save these birds.

Thanks for your interest!

[@danbev8542]

Loved that book! Jean Craighead George wrote 2 sequels many years after “Side”. The 2nd one acknowledges that taking baby falcons is illegal & the story continues. The 3rd book is about the falcons from the falcon’s point of view! I loved it.

[@reginaromsey]

I love the way he talks to the birds (and his wife)! I’m so glad I didn’t follow a dream of getting a hawk and doing falconry as a hobby. There is way more work involved than most people can devote (like a lifetimej

How wonderful that the last eagle you picked up in the old Subaru survived and was able to be released as the first one in your new vehicle. A great segue. And at least she had a full crop of food when you got her, so she wasn't starving on top of the injuries. I'm sure that at least helped her survive.

[@julieenslow5915]

When you admitted you were surprised this Golden Eagle survived her first night with you - because her injuries were so bad - you confirmed my gut reaction to watching her. I've watched many of your videos for a number of years and they are never so lovey dovey when they are well. As a result - i have stopped wondering why they don't wish you a good-bye when they depart. I now know that if they depart quickly and fly far - its a testament to how well they are feeling and how sincere is their belief that they are happy to be free of humans! As you said - that's just how it should be! Great job with her, and i love you took the opportunity to enlist some more people into the club of "humans for eagles"! Hopefully they will slow down when they see one on the side of the road!
