The snake was at the animal hospital, it was being cared for.

Instead of showing this terrible picture, why is not someone removing these ticks from that poor creature? This makes me sick.

It is a terrible picture. someone needs to pour baby oil on him, the ticks would suffocate. You hold him and I'll run to the store for the oil!
I'm sorry, I couldn't help myself!

Ticks will not drink from the dead, the blood pulls to the side the dead lay on. No circulation, no blood to drink. As long as the tick are attached the snake is alive. I'm sure they got them off, but for how long? That area has an infestation.
