Tee Hee my answer is better ;)

A lot of animals feed off snails. Their usual predotars are small animals like mice and voles, lemmings and the like. Smaller reptiles and amphimbians happen to find them as good snacks as well. But it isn't just animals, protozoa and bacteria happen to find them very useful as well. One such parasitic organism known as the tremotode (looks like a microscopic fish, small enough to lay eggs in a snails eye) hatch in ponds where they swim around in search of snails. They actually do lay their eggs in snails eyes, but they don't kill the poor animal, not just then. They travel to its stomach where they begin to steal off all its food, and the snail finds itself to be perpetually hungry. Snails then, poor things, find it impossible to mate or sleep, or enjoy anything about snail life (I mean, if you're always hungry, you're gonna have to be one heck of a multitasker to have sex and look for food at the same time). Eventually though, the trematodes mature enough, and they get bored of their snail, so they lay seige on the snails antenna, making the snail twitch, and turn its eyes into bright colors. A bird (another predator) passing by overhead sees it, thinks "yum, swoops down and puts the sad, horny snail out of its misery (that, believe it or not, happens to be just the beginning of a trematodes life; they still haven't even had sex yet). But anyway, as interesting as trematodes are, you've asked about the more banal snail; and hey, everything eats a snail. Cats, when they're hungry enough will eat invertabrates, and there are even people who eat insects (like my brother), says they're a great and quick source of energy.

Answer 3

Mollusks have four main predators. One predator is a starfish. It grabs the mollusk and slowly forces open the shell and eats the animal inside. Another predator is the otter. It mainly feasts off of land snails but it sometimes dives deep for an underwater snack. The two other predators are raccoons and muskrats, but they always eat land snails.
