Word spread quickly. Lifeguards joined the search along the cliffs, and a drone operator offered help. “She’s so small,” Mrs. Tran whispered. “She couldn’t survive on her own.” The community’s efforts soon led them to a steep rocky bluff overlooking the sea.
High up on a jagged ledge, someone spotted it: a giant eagle’s nest balanced between two craggy outcrops. A faint bark echoed down the cliff. Carefully, two rescue workers climbed up with ropes and harnesses, unsure of what they’d find.
When they peered into the nest, their jaws dropped. There was Mochi — alive and unharmed. But what left everyone frozen was the scene around her: the puppy was nestled beside three tiny eaglets, nuzzling them gently like a protective sibling.
