Cool facts (i bet you didn't know) about SNAILS!

Hey every one!!! i have a feeling that you don't know these facts about snails. (unless you research snail anatomy*,like i do.) Here is Cool Snail Fact #1- A snail shell is made out of Calcium Carbonate, which (the shell) gets harder when the snail eats food w/ calcium. Cool Snail Fact #2- The tentacles that the snails have their eyes on/in can retract, which is why sometimes you do not always see them. Cool Fact #3- It is true that snails can die by salt, however they also die by sugar! The reason for this is that Salt and sugar dry the snails "Slime" out. causing them to fall over and tragically die! *if you are interested in snails and would like to learn more about them, go to this snail webpage. www.snail-world.com
