Golden Snail

Golden Snail.
Like a jewel on a leaf.

Snails and slugs are part of the Mollusk family of animals – alongside clams, octopus, scallops, oysters, squid, and chitons. The primary difference between slugs and snails is the hard exterior shell that snails don for protection. Slugs and snails are further classified as ‘gastropods’, which literally means stomach and foot, which is fitting, seeing that they slide along on a muscular foot while munching on everything in their path! In addition to being ferocious eaters, snails and slugs rapidly reproduce.


Thanks for your visits, favs and comments. As always, appreciated very much!
