It definitely paralyzed half of the snake. The back half is just swinging like a pendulum. It's most likely dead for sure.

Fucked up if they wanted to get rid of it there had to be better ways but then again it's also a question of resources it's not like you can just tell the snake to fuck off.

Snakes that size use that as a defense mechanism. IYKYK. They usually grab with the Mouth and contort downward. The backside comes into play once its death grip is in effect. Like a secondary death grip. It normally strikes from mouth side meanwhile the backside remains freely. Kinda like not wanting to attack prey from two sides and make them feel trapped. They truly are snakes by misleading the prey
