Snake sightings are always pretty creepy, but they don't get more terrifying than this.

Australian man Steve Young was out on his property last Sunday when he happened to spot a 1.6 metre (5.2 foot) poisonous red-bellied black snake eating a brown snake — and well over halfway through its meal.

It didn't faze Young, who snapped a few pictures of the ghoulish encounter and posted them online, for all to enjoy.

"I was standing over the top of it taking a photograph and my wife said 'you're crazy'," he told the Bega District News

He said he wasn't worried about getting bitten — the snake had its mouth full. With snake. Eugh.

While it's a pretty extraordinary sight, black snakes are known to eat other snakes — even their own type. 

It's nature, deal with it.
