I don't think that particular wire is electrified.
Notice in the first image that the wires are wrapped around each metal fencepost, which means it's grounded.

The wires pinching the python in the lower left of the 2nd image do seem to have insulators, and could be electrified. But having touched an electric fence before, I'm not so sure the python could've made it that far under the fence.
Then again, maybe the fence sent it into convulsions which shot it forward and sent it flailing.

(grew up on farm with animals. and electric fences. and yes I've touched them)
