Experience the feeling when Mother Nature gets back one of her own. This eagle was kept in a small cage since it was a chick. When it arrived at the vet Dr. Dulce in Puerto Morelos she had to pry open the cage because the eagle had grown too big for the little hatch. She then nursed it back to life and Adalberto the eagle trainer from Leona Vicario taught it to fly and hunt again.
