A tiny mouse was thrown into a cage as food for a viper - but turned the tables and killed the snake instead.

Firefighters in Nantou town, Taiwan, caught the 35cm snake and put it into a mouse cage for safe-keeping.
“We then found it a mouse for lunch,” a spokesman for the team told Apple Daily.
But the firefighters were stunned to see how aggressive the mouse became once it saw the predator in the cage.
