Just. Keep. Walking

Known as the Giant African Land Snail, this bizarrely big snail is ironically considered a source of pest invasion around the world. These snails, while seemingly slow, are total opposites when it comes to devouring plants. However, some of these snails have been taken up as pets.

The adult giant snail is around 2.8 inches in diameter and 7.9 inches long, making it one of the largest land snails. It feeds on a wide range of fruit, plants, vegetables, cardboards, and papers. It also eats small stones, sands, and even concretes. While this giant snail is a highly invasive agricultural pest, it also poses a certain degree of risk to human health, as well as to animals.
