This is the bizarre moment a dead snake kept wriggling - despite half of its body being completely crushed. The deceased reptile was lying on the drive way of a house in Charleston, South Carolina, but continued to move the tail-end of its body. But the usual explanation that involves nerves continuing to send signals to the spinal cord - resulting in muscles twitches and spasms after death - is not the reason in this case.
The video reveals that the copperhead snake is full of maggots, that are wriggling frantically under the reptile's skin.
A caption alongside the video reads: "Found a partially crushed baby copperhead in the driveway today. Went to take a picture of it and discovered it was still moving. After further examination, I found that it was not some postmortem muscle spasm causing the movement, but rather the fact that it was full of maggots. No idea how long it was there.
