Snails

Snails are small, snail-shaped mollusks that are typically found in moist environments, with some species living in the sea. They are significant to the ecosystem as they help with nutrient cycling, and serve as a food source for other animals. In addition, they help to aerate the soil and can be used as sustainable sources of food, as they are an abundant source of protein, vitamins, and minerals. Snails can also be part of integrated pest management strategies, as they are known to eat many garden pests, such as slugs and insects.
