Let's Talk About Snails & Snakes

Snails yes, snakes no. I am petrified when comes to snakes; spiders and dogs too but that is a different story for another rainy day. I was reading something about snails and let me share this with you. There are more than 80,000 different species of snails, yes 80,000 that is darn a lot. I think I probably seen 20 the most including the one I ate. They are widely distributed on land, in the sea and in the fresh water. Land snails have two pairs of tentacles where their set of eyes reside on the lower set. Water snails have only one pair of tentacles, with eyes at the base.

Now my favorite subject - the snakes. What can I say about the snakes? They hatch from eggs - and no they are not related to the chicken. However, there are some species of snakes that do give birth to live young snakes.

Anna: We don't have snails but we do have slugs, the snail that forgot the shell.

About This Blog

What good is the 'knowledge' if not shared. Not good at all. Therefore, whatever knowledge I have acquired over many of my living years on this Earth, I am going to share it with you. I hate to tell you that my knowledge is not specific, it is about everything, as I always ask questions and I want to know why? what? when? I work, I cook, I am raising a child, I went to school, I travelled, I have my own business - there is then a lot to tell and share.
