Giant African Land Snails!

14 05 2008

Behold the monstrous beauty of the Giant African Land Snail. These creatures can grow to nearly a foot long and can live for about a decade if well cared for. They eat vegetables of all sorts and are apparently easy pets to keep, if you’re into that sort of thing. They’re illegal in America due to their potential as invasive agricultural pests, but are available in the UK and other countries.

So, how deep is your love?

Thank you to Avi Abrams at the ever-exciting Dark Roasted Blend for the heads-up!

Yes, yes, but you never read that Patricia Highsmith story about the Blank Claveringi, did you? It’s all fun and games until somebody is eaten alive!!!
