Moon snail

On wednesday I got to see my first a live Moon snail, and oh my gosh. They are so huge and super cute I also liked it because they felt really neat. There flesh feels really nice and interesting. It also felt a bit different than  a land snail. But it wasn't like gooey or anything like that.  They are huge cuties and they dig themselves down. They eat clams. I also think they are in the mollusc phylum.

I was also able to collect my first Moon Snail shell, its currently on my deck and its drying out right now.

Also if you ever pick one of these guys up, you need to put it back carefully, and you want the base (Which is the organism itself) on the ground. NOT THE SHELL.
