*consider that it might unkink at some point on it's own, if not too severe.
*consider the life that animal would have if left to live, would it be in pain or otherwize suffer?

*consider the suffering of an especially cold blooded animal freezing to death, snakes have a similar nervous system to people, they suffer. How is freezing a snake humane?
*consider what it's like to have you skull crushed to death, and how pleasant that is.
*consider what it would be like to be put down humanely with a shot at the vet, becoming unconscious, lights out.

If you put it down, take it to the vet and do it the humane way with a painless barbiturate OD. Freezing to death or having your skull bashed in are not humane.
