Nature can often be beautiful one minute, and brutal the next.
Especially for this wallaby in Kuranda, Queensland on Sunday. After grazing in a paddock, it found itself being slowly eaten by a 3-metre (9.8 feet) scrub python.

"It was right in the middle of the paddock, there it was rolling around this huge wallaby and python," Worlsfold told ABC News.
"I was amazed by the size of his [python's] head ... he swallowed that wallaby in three hours."
The length of time the snake took to eat its meal meant that Worlsford could keep returning: "I didn't watch it all. I went away to make a cup of tea but came back every hour."
And his video narration is 10/10.

It's no rarity either. Only few weeks ago, the exact same thing happened at a golf course nearby from Worlsfold's property.
