The puppy they raised died by their side, too.
The bodies of a pair of university students were found hugging each other tightly Thursday morning under the ruins of a residential building in Taiwan.
The building collapsed during a deadly earthquake last weekend in Taiwan, which killed dozens and has left many more still trapped.
Tsai Meng-chia, the male student, was reported to be covering his girlfriend Huang Ruo-hsin with nothing but his own body as a desperate effort at protection. Rescuers struggled to unwrap his arms from around her.
The young couple, both 21 and junior students, have been identified as students of the local Kun Shan University in the southern city of Tainan where the magnitude-6.4 earthquake overturned the 16-story building where they lived.
