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.

There is a formation called an operculum which acts as a door, ensuring the safety of the snail at entering into its shell. These strange looking snails are considered truly a treasure to exotic pet collectors. Land snails are commonly found in moist and damp locations which are covered with moss.
