Whelks typically take about 3 to 5 years to reach maturity, depending on the species and environmental conditions. Factors such as water temperature, food availability, and habitat can influence their growth rate. Once mature, they can live for several years, often up to a decade or more.
What else can I help you with?
Did the whelk make the shells?
No, whelks do not make shells; rather, they create their shells as they grow. The shell is actually a part of the whelk's body, formed by secretions from a gland in the mantle. As the whelk ages, it adds new layers to its shell, allowing it to grow larger. The shell serves as protection and plays a role in the whelk's overall biology.
