Mollusks do indeed migrate. It is a time consuming struggle. Every November 17th, mollusks sprout legs and they start to crawl to the Baltic Sea. This Sea is over 300,000,000 miles away and many mollusks die along the way. There are many predators against mollusks.

For example, razor clams have to avoid predators like the clown fish. The mucous on the clown fishes' skin is magnetic, and there is a certain particle that has not a positive, not a negative, not a neutral charge but an optimus charge that is embedded in the razor clam's shell which pulls it towards the clown fish. Sadly, when the clam comes in contact with the clown fish, it is absorbed into the clown fishes skin.

That's why the razor clam is close to extinction. Marine Biologists have been trying to set up a tube called the "Tubman Tube" that leads the mollusks to the Baltic Sea. The tube travels along the ocean floor and all mollusks enter it. A current pushes them to safety. This idea has only recently been created and is still in progress. The process has not been affective yet and has actually wiped out half of the mollusk population because they get trapped in the tube. However, the biologists have high hopes for the future.
