Video has captured the terrifying moment the tables turned on a curious kitten who ventured too close to a garden pond full of Japanese koi carp.
The footage, which has gone viral since it was posted online last week, shows the young cat hovering precariously over the lip of the pond as it peers into the murky water in Japan.
Another cat stands over the kitten protectively as its feline friend paws at the brightly-coloured koi circling below.
Suddenly, a huge brown-coloured fish leaps out of the pond and grabs the young cat as shocked onlookers scream.
Both predator and its prey vanish beneath the water as the last-standing cat remains frozen in terror.
It has been suggested that the attacking fish is of the pike variety as opposed to the placid koi.
It is not known if the kitten survived.
