This image entitled 'crocodilian carnage' has received over 60 likes on Instagram SOUTH AFRICA: GRUESOME shots of a one-thousand-pound crocodile thrashing an impala through the air like a rag doll before mercilessly gobbling it up have been revealed. One horrific image showed a twelve-foot-long male Nile crocodile as it grabbed a four-foot-tall impala by the right leg and smacked it against the water in an arcing motion. Other pictures captured the beast ripping the mammal limb from limb and the limp legs of the 160-pound impala as they hung from the hungry crocodile?s mouth. Scientist and researcher, Blair Cowie (28) from Johannesburg, South Africa, photographed the crocodilian carnage in the lower portion of the Sabie River, in Kruger National Park. He used a Canon EOS 80D with a 100-400mm lens to capture the male impala?s final moments.
