A Whale of a Snail!


The other day, I opened the door to our apartment on our way out to somewhere. Waiting for us on the doorstep was...a snail! It seems like an insignificant thing, but I have never seen a snail like this before, and I was really excited! The only snails I've seen are tiny and don't have the awesome antennae. It looked just like a cartoon to me! I was giggling, and Landon was trying to convince me to let him put salt on it (fat chance, honey). We rescued him, and put him back into the edge of the bushes where he would have a better change at surviving। It is so interesting to experience this fascinating world we live in!

Wholly! Snail! That thing is huge...I also have only seen smaller ones. Wow!
I agree with you that it looks like a cartoon snail.

Haha that's so funny to me, I grew up with these snails in Utah and I thought Idaho (small,tiny) snails were weird! How are you guys liking it in Utah!?! I totally envy you!

Have fun
