It is a rare - and brutal - example of nature at work.

A powerful golden eagle swoops on an unsuspecting Sika deer, digs in its claws in and tries to drag its prey away.

These images, captured by zoologists in a nature reserve the remote Lazovsky region of southeast Russia, show a particularly audacious attack which sees the eagle fell an animal several times its own size.
