A photographer has captured two wild hamsters sparring in dramatic fashion on a farm near Kiskunság National Park in Hungary.

The two brown European hamsters wrestle in the dirt as they fight to become the more dominant male.

According to The Sun newspaper in the United Kingdom, the pictures were taken by 52-year-old software developer Csaba Gödény.

“The hamsters had completely invaded the area, you could see them everywhere. Even around the farmhouse there were plenty of the little holes they make for their homes,” Gödény told the newspaper.

“They fought a lot, so we decided to photograph them in action. We found a nice place and waited for the nice light just before sunset.
