A snail's organs are attached to the shell through the mantle. If you attempt to pull the snail out, it will harm it.

What is the name of snail that does not have shell?

A snail's shell contains its internal organs, such as its lung, reproductive organs and heart. Removing this will, of course, not be good for the snail. Take a closer look at the snail: if it's bleeding, it means it's dead. If it's not, it means its a slug.

How do you make a snail move faster?

there are many different ways to make a snail go faster. one of these ways is to take a syringe, half a cup of coffee and a teaspoon of sugar. put the coffee and the sugar into the syringe and give the snail an injection. there is a scientific explanation that a snail's shell holds it down and makes it go slower. so you could just say, remove the shell. but the problem with that is the shell is the snails home. another way (which is really crazy) is to put a snail on a rocket and blast it out into space. but never do this to a pet snail for it may not come back down to earth alive.
