It's a reptilian showdown of epic proportions! This video captured by author Tiffany Corlis shows a snippet of the five-hour wrestling match between a python and a crocodile at Queensland's Lake Moondarra over the weekend. The snake - thought to be python measuring around 10ft (3m) - constricted the croc to death, before dragging it to shore and eating it whole in front of a captivated crowd.

"It was just unbelievable," said Tiffany Corlis, after witnessing the incident. "We were sort of thinking that the snake had bitten off a little more than it could chew. But it did. It actually ate the crocodile."
