    It also could have been someone deliberately messing with the car's owner. But snakes of various kinds are occasionally found under the hood, having been dumped
    & attracted by the engine warmth. The other thing that would attract a snake to investigate under the hood of a car is the smell of rodents. I've lived places where
    wild pack-rats try to move into cars parked in the open...they chew up wires & try to carry off whatever they can for nest material, so that's another possibility here.
    Unless BPs learn to talk, we'll never know for sure.
