A beautiful adult Golden Eagle that was suffering from West Nile Virus symptoms has recovered from his illness and was released on Saturday, August 27,

There is a common belief among many native people that if you say your prayers with an eagle feather, the eagle feather will carry your prayers to God. The golden eagle has over 7000 feathers, which represents over 7000 prayers.

The eagle was released by the Canyon Creek Women's Crisis Center to help bring awareness to the devastation of domestic abuse and violence. We would like to encourage everyone who has been touched by domestic violence, weather a victim, family member or friend; come to Cedar City Utah, stand with us and offer up hopes and prayers on the wings of an eagle as this majestic bird soars back to the heavens.

_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.
