Slugs and Snails

62 to be exact

24 to 40 months

In the UK we call them Winkles, periwinkles and whelks

Snails are herbovores, and really like lettuce.

No, they are differnet species

yes

they are endotherm

it sqeezes it mouth through the case and pulls it out

somehow that's simple

No it's not but, It is possible to keep some snail species as pets - there are only four I would recommend: Helix pomatia, Helix aspersa, Cepaea nemoralis and Cepaea hortensis. Any others are too small or have needs that are too specific to be recreated in captivity. See the section on Giant African Land Snail care, which can broadly apply to these species, except that the tank will not need to be as hot, and of course they require less space and food. If you found them eating a certain plant, provide it for them when they're in captivity. The advantage of keeping these snails as pets is that you can always return them to the wild when you do not wish to look after them anymore.

no i eat snails and i am not aboriginal The above remark does not answer the question.

I once got bored and found a snail in my garden, i brought in into the kitchen for the cat to play with, but she didn't want anything to do with it, then i happened to glance at the microwave, and i thought what would happen if you microwaved a snail.

well, within the first 3 seconds the snail exploded and turned the entire inside of my lovely white microwave a horrid green colour due to its insides etc. and it stank of damp mouldy grass. I spent ages wiping it clean :(

For your benefit, I recommend you don't microwave any snails :)

that's a good question but no i don't think they can live under water but i think sea snails can for a little bit.

slug catcher is equipment that installed at terminal point offshore to onshore for catching large volume accumulation liquid hold up from hydrocarbon pipe transferring ,due to the main application of this equipment is catching and temporary storage of liquid from pipeline ,named to slug catcher.

according to particular application , typs of slug catchers are consisted .such as ,vessel type ,pipe type and multiple pipe slug catcher .

multi pipe slug catcher is specially applied for gas transferring pipe line . it consists parallel downward incline pipe line in which capable to separate phase and temporary storage liquid in worse case condition such as pigging operation .

That is probably what is called the operculum. That is a door that the snail closes behind itself when it pulls back into the shell.

There is actually a slug called the leopard slug.

They sit on your hand,freeze for a bit and stick this really spiky leg in your cell and suck your blood

common garden slug dig more then one feet

by the way the answer is not no!

I live in an area amazingly overrun with imported brown snails (imported for food use, BTW) I keep a strictly organic garden so I hand pick snails. Iusually find between 50 and 100 every time I go out to pick them this time ofyear. They do indeed make a sqeaking noise when they are picked up. This is the sound made as they retreat into their shells and air is forced our through tiny spaces

funny ey rach!

buy or get a tub .... stick some grass init , flowers, mud , poo and snail poo and that's it i hope u owners have a good slug to look after

There is no specific lifespan for tree snails. However, in the wild they can live up to several years.

if it hasn't moved in a week it is probably dead

my name is katie, when snails are first born they are much smaller than a millimeter. don't think the wrong way about me but just to be a show off, I have proudly captured 15 live snails. and all of them are alive and healthy today!

A garden snail goes to a speed of 0.03 mph. An average snail gets 2.36 inches in a minute, and per day about 2.8 m.
