That is probably a fawn and depending on how young it is... they weigh about five to ten pounds shortly after birth. That would be a lot of weight for an eagle to pick up, but I would guess a mature adult eagle could lift that. Maybe the meal got too heavy and they dropped it.

Did you ever see that post a while back, where they had a moose hanging in a high line wire? That was pretty cool.
