The wild battle that emerged on Sunday at Lake Moondarra, near Mount Isa, in Queensland, Australia, was caught on tape by locals.

The 3-meter-long snake, suspected to be a notorious python wrapped itself around the crocodile and both fought in the lake’s waters. After suffocating the crocodile by constricting it, the serpent brought the prey ashore and swallowed it.

Local writer Tiffany Corlis observed the scuffle and snapped a couple of amazing photographs which spread around the world. She described the incident:

“That was incredible” she said in an interview for BBC. “We spotted the snake wrestling with the crocodile. It twisted the prey in order to grab it better, then coiled around croc’s legs to keep it in place”, said Corlis.

“The battle started in water with the crocodile desperately struggling to keep its head above the surface, and the snake curling around it,”.
