Residents near Mount Isa in Queensland, Australia, frequently visit nearby Lake Moondarra for a leisurely day in the sun. A quiet morning at the lake turned into an unforgettable experience on Sunday when a fight broke out between a 10-foot snake (presumably a python) and a crocodile in the water.
Tiffany Corlis was one of the residents watching the battle unfold. “We saw the snake fighting with the crocodile — it would roll the crocodile around to get a better grip, and coil its body around the crocodile’s legs to hold it tight,” she said.
However, it was what happened after the fight that stunned everyone the most.
Once the 5-hour reptilian brawl ended, the snake dragged the crocodile to shore. It then began at the crocodile’s head and over the course of just 15 minutes, completely swallowed the entire thing.
Corlis said she and others didn’t stick around too long to see where the snake was headed to next. Thankfully, she and Marvin Mueller were able to take these fantastic photographs, which, for obvious reasons, have quickly spread across Australia and beyond.
