Vicious bird of prey attacks unsuspecting prey from behind
Then drags the terrified beast away to be eaten
Amazing shots were captured by scientists in Lazovsky, Russia
Zoologists believe it is the first time such an attack has been photographed

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 carries its prey off to death.
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 prey several times its own size.

Although the golden eagle is notorious for its bold hunts, and have been caught attacking coyote and even a young bear, experts believe this is the first documented attack on a deer.
The three frame show just two seconds of action, and were taken accidentally by scientists researching the endangered Siberian tiger.
