[ animal drawing ] Land slug
Added 2022-10-23 11:51:45 +0000 UTCSince I drew a lot of sea slugs, but I almost never drew a land slug, so I sketched this time. (Drew a banana slug once before.)
It was surprised to see the size of the slug on the palm of some people's hand while researching the data. I met only small slugs about the size of a thumb nail in my life π I'd like to touch a big slug once.
Did you know there is a semi-slug? They have a shell, but the shell is so small that they can't put a body in them. Sometimes there is a shell in the mantle.
Sea slugs and snails are a favorite of many patreons here, so I wonder what the slugs are like. Do you have a specific land slug species that you like?

Ah, there is such a problem! Well they are big and somewhere I've heard slugs have more slime than snails??? Doesn't it wash well with soap?

2022-10-25 17:38:08 +0000 UTCWhen I was a kid, adults would tell you to lick them! Their slime is also like hagfish where touched with liquid it swells up and becomes extremely thick and sticky. I think it's probably not recommended to lick them for fun anymore? Maybe the slugs don't like it, either.

2022-10-24 17:00:59 +0000 UTCBanana slugs!! They're the 2nd largest land slug in the world and their mucus is numbing (like, if you lick them, your tongue will go numb).

2022-10-24 09:55:29 +0000 UTCcool! I wrote in the post that I would like to touch them, but in reality I may not be able to touch them and only shout of joy like you! Maybe they don't like being touched by giant humans π

2022-10-24 07:02:31 +0000 UTCYeah I remember! If the mascot of my school was a slug, I would have liked my school.

2022-10-23 23:22:03 +0000 UTCThese are so cute and wonderful! In Florida, we have a kind of slug called a "pancake" or "leather leaf" slug, and they can get somewhat large! I love holding them. :)
