Find The "Dracula" Among The Typical Snails, The Fire Snail

All of us have heard about ‘cat people’ and ‘dog people’, but not about ‘snail people’? Sometimes the attractiveness of the character Spongebob and his pet snail, Gary may have drawn this attraction towards it. And the trend of keeping snails as pets has come into practice? Though it’s not my cup of tea, it is up to each of the others to have their own! Platymma tweediei which is from Malaysia is considered as the most uncommon snail even though it's a bit creepy and large.

The excretion of the snails is called 'snail slime or snail trail' is sometimes an ingredient of cosmetics and the body of the snail (not all the snails are eaten!) is a good food as well. Jewelry and some other ornamental items are produced with the use of snail shells. The area of distribution is quite large compared to the body size, 100km radius and 1000m above sea level.
