What is the point

[tiggerblue10]

of a slug? What purpose does it serve on the planet?

[bensmum]

Hedgehogs like to eat them so they form a valuable part of the food chain

[bigmamma]

....and they make snails realise how lucky they are to have a home .

[bensmum]

Heyy bigmamma - good to see you
xx
Awww - homeless snails, that's sad if you look at it like that

[Elmek]

i used to think that about wasps, vicious little thugs, but then i found out they eat greenfly so they aint so bad now lol

[stompe]

French would go hungry!

[sn�gged]

What would pour salt on if there were no slugs?

[sn�gged]

^ we

[mumof3angels]

Would it be wrong if I said my boys quite like to watch them shrivel up when I put salt on them. Sorry we have loads here and I can't stand them. Stood on one once when I was wearing flip-flops and it squished over the top and onto my foot. Since then they give me the creeps and I get the salt out as soon as I see one.

waves to bensmum...

[tiggerblue10]

As you can see I'm a bit bored so I have resorted to questioning the existance of invertebrates, namely slugs.

I don't which is worse, stepping on a slug or stepping on a snail. I don't really want to waste my sea salt on a slug though.

apropos of nothing much - bats eat midges

[QueenOfAmber]

slugs are underestimated.
my friend and i had a snail vs. slug vs. tortoise race...
guess which one?

[unrulyjulie]

They provide hours of fun if you put salt on them and also they feel hilariously funny if you tread on one with bare feet as i have done!

[QueenOfAmber]

CRUELTY TO SLUGS!!!!
Save the slugs from unrulyjulie!!!!

(The slug won the race btw.)

[unrulyjulie]

I wouldnt do such a cruel thing myself of course QOA! No, seriously, i wouldnt and never have! Equal rights for slugs i say!

[QueenOfAmber]
