Impaction is basically constipation. It can be caused by an excessively warm ventral heat source, slightly cooler temps than usual, lower humidity, drying substrates, overfed and underactive snakes ( taken from ' whats wrong with my snake ' ). In this animals case i dont know the actual cause is / was as it is a wild one. Am sending a small part of the impaction away to see what is was so i can get an indication of what it has been eating.
