I doubt an eagle touching a drone isn't coming into contact with at least one of the propellers, so if the eagle flew away with a mangled foot, what are the odds it can then take care of itself or feed chicks?
I agree.  I'll bet you are right.  Drone props are on top.  It seems much more likely than not, that the eagle was severely injured.

These drones are not good for wildlife, except maybe in the hands of researchers.  Too many irresponsible people out there.  Too little regulation out in the country, where the wildlife live.
