A photograph called "Station Squabble" by Sam Rowley captures two mice appearing to fight on a London Underground platform. The scene was photographed late at night and quickly drew attention for its timing and realism.
The image went on to win the People's Choice Award at the 2019 edition of Wildlife Photographer of the Year, an international competition hosted by the Natural History Museum in London.
It’s a great photograph, but I can’t help but wonder if the photographer misinterpreted the situation. Perhaps it was more of a Dirty Dancing moment, and they were secretly practicing their routine for the big campground show... 🤔
The person you're replying to is a taxidermist. They had some taxidermied mice lying around and after a bit of positioning and a few snaps composited the best shot into the photo OP posted.

Might not even be over food. Mice are assholes to each other regularly, like cats.
