Saw this one legged Bald Eagle fishing at Colvill Park in Red Wing,MN today.
These are not the best of pics, pretty heavy crops. He seem to be surviving pretty good and he can still catch a fish.

If it was a trap, I wonder if he was saved by rescuers and medical treatment, or if the leg came off in the trap and he got really lucky with recovery. Sad or not, it would be interesting to know the story.
