Mice in a subway may be a typical sight on your commute to work, but one wildlife photographer captured the moment two were brawling in an award-winning photograph. 

Titled "Station squabble," Sam Rowley's photograph of two mice apparently fighting over leftover crumbs in a London underground station was voted the winner of the Wildlife Photographer of the Year LUMIX People's Choice Award.

Rowley, a photographer based in Bristol, captured the image of the fight after visiting the the station every night over the course of the week, London's Natural History Museum said in a news release. The interaction lasted for only a second as one of the mice ran away after winning the crumbs, the museum said.

"Sam's image provides a fascinating glimpse into how wildlife functions in a human-dominated environment. The mice's behaviour is sculpted by our daily routine, the transport we use and the food we discard," museum director Sir Michael Dixon said in the statement.
