I can see two tiles that the wubba could help me kill the snake (upper right lone tile and lower right) but I don't think I can put it on either of them...

Yeah, it seems to me it either needs to be 23,10 or 31,21 and I don't get it either.

Edit: Nope...

Can someone let me know where I should try to park the wubba and the snake so he's trappable? I am still no good at precise snake manipulation.

Sorry I was unclear, I meant where should I get the wubba and the snake before trying to move them to that spot?

I dance around the rocks for a while and I can get the snake below the rock moving East but he always eventually moves north before the trap. I can't get it and honestly I have zero patience for precise snake manipulation.

Interesting. That looks like what I initially tried, but wasn't working too well.

Eventually I got it to work by having the wubba at the same point Jacob mentioned:

I got it to the above points many times and the snake *never* turned in the desired direction. Demo please?
