In a video shared on social media over the weekend, a woman fishing in Cahills Crossing in the Kakadu National Park in Australia’s Northern Territory is seen dragging a sizable fish, reportedly a barramundi, along the shore after hooking it on her line, while her partner runs up with a net to grab the catch.

However, while the pair is attempting to grab the barramundi, their plans are interrupted by a saltwater crocodile that rushes out of the river and snatches the fish off the line.
