This is the dramatic moment a bear took out an American bald eagle in one fell swoop after getting too close to her cub and its food.
The eagle swooped down on the bear and her cub as they were eating a dead whale in Kodiak, Alaska
One eagle got far to close to the bear’s cub and its food angering the large animal into action
The bear then attacks the eagle and ends up swatting it to the ground with its large paws
However, one bird got far too close for the adult bear’s liking and she swatted it down with her huge paw.
Once on the ground, the bear made sure the eagle was not going to threaten her cub any further
The cub even wandered over to make sure the eagle who was eyeing up his dinner was no longer a threat
‘She got a bit tired of the eagles and started chasing them away, even her cub got into the act.
The eagle was left on the floor with a broken back and unable to fly while the two bears enjoyed a nap
He added: ‘She never actually killed the eagle, I think the talon in the face ended the attack.
