Snake vs Crocodile: A Dramatic Showdown

Two photographers (folks with camera phones, I suspect) snapped some epic photos recently. The cutlines tell most of the story, but there is a bit of article below the photos.

Ms Corlis says the scuffle attracted a lot of attention, with several people taking pictures on their smart phones. She says everyone got quite close to the action. "We were probably a little too brave, a little too crazy," she said.

She says the sight became even more interesting once the snake had finished eating. "You could see the crocodile in the snake's belly which I think was probably the more remarkable thing. You could actually see its legs and see its scales and everything, it was just amazing."

Ms Corlis says the incident has not discouraged her from swimming at Lake Moondarra in the future. "I think I'll just send someone else in first."

(I revised their non-paragraph breaks between sentences for readability.)
