No, slugs do not have opposable thumbs. Slugs are mollusks and possess a soft, elongated body without limbs or any structures resembling thumbs. Their movement is facilitated by a muscular foot that allows them to glide over surfaces, but they lack the anatomical features necessary for grasping objects like opposable thumbs.
