Father and son duo, Jeff and Ashley Cohen - regular contributors to our have just sent in some amazing, yet brutal shots of a stoat killing a rabbit up in , North Wales.
Looks away now if you're squeamish but remember this is what nature is all about - survival of the fittest!
This particular stoat family lives near the seashore at the Conwy RSPB Reserve and uses the beach as a short cut, so yes, that is seaweed you're seeing in some of the shots!
It appears as if Conwy is rapidly becoming one of the best places in Britain to see stoat in the wild and other members of our have also sent in remarkable pics from the same location.
