Survival of the Fittest; Photos of a Snake killing and Swallows a Crocodile

 It was one of the most astonishing battles in the animal world - when a snake decided it was going to swallow a whole crocodile for lunch.

If it seems an impossible notion, these photos show the astonishing result as the snake slithered slowly away with the crocodile filling its body.

Local woman Tiffany Corlis saw the snake, a python, heading towards the freshwater crocodile on the edge of Lake Moondarra, some 12 miles north east of Mount Isa, in outback Queensland, reported the ABC.
