Synopsis

Rosie Saunders and Kayo Benton were in the woods, watching bald eagles through their binoculars, when they saw the red-jacketed man climbing below the nest. Suddenly he reached up, snatched an eaglet and scrambled down the mountain as two eagles screamed above. Rosie and Kayo rushed from their hiding place, desperate to follow the poacher and free the endangered eaglet. But soon they were lost in the dense wilderness of the Cascade Mountains -- tired, thirsty, and scared. That's when they saw the cabin filled with stuffed birds -- and the poacher, who vowed to stop them in their tracks...
