Slugs and Snails by Theresa Greenaway
Describing life processes of slugs and snails through a hands-on approach, this book shows how slugs and snails move; why they leave a slimy trail in their wake and the part they play in soil nutrition. It also looks at the species around the world, from the common garden slug to the European Great Gray whose courtship ritual consists of dangling mid-air on a rope of slime while mating. This book is one of a series which gives simple instructions explaining how to find, identify, collect and study specific minibeasts. It also shows how to make a home, feed and care for them, how to release them successfully back into the wild, how to keep observational records of daily lives and where to find out more.
