Not to spoil your very credible scientific analysis Ace, but for electrocution to occur, you need an active (positive) and a negative (earth). Normlly electric fences incorporate both hence the poor bugger slid under on the very dry ground..... its very fat belly (what was in there???) still under the positive when for some reason he lifted his head to see something or strike at it...... CIRCUIT COMPLETE!

BZZZZZZZZZ

You only need to touch the one wire in an electric fence to get zapped, trust me i have done it. Matt

I follow, but i was wondering what Wardy meant by the snake rearing its head up and getting caught on the wire completing the circuit, as the circuit is complete when the snake touches the wire and the ground, as you say vlad. Matt
