Frightening photographs have captured the moment a Zebra's head is left poking out of a giant croc's mouth after crossing the hungry beast in a murky watering hole.
The huge predator devours its prey and its monstrous body swells as it digests its sizeable lunch in the Maasai Mara National Reserve in Kenya.
The crocodile has to fight away another beast who tries to get in on its food, but it shares nothing and is pictured floating in the water with the Zebra's head coming from its powerful jaws.
Photographer Subramanian Sridharan captured the snaps and said he had to accept nature taking its course.
