Welcome to The trail of the snail
And thanks for stopping by,I'm glad you're taking an interest in snails.You will see that they are more than the creatures crawling over the pavement when it has rained.Or that there is more to them than being a nuisance in the garden.
This site is dedicated to snails and slugs in all their aspects,be it scientific(biology,malacology etc) or entertaining(in literature,on stamps etc).It is set up in three parts:Landsnails,slugs and freshwatersnails.Each part functions as a stand alone site.Because of that you might run into information you found on another part of the site as well.
After a year of five I decided to give the old site a bit of a face-lift,make it more up-to-date so to speak.I hope you like it,you have the chance of giving your opinion on the poll that can be found on this page.If,for some reason,you still like the old version better:not to worry.It's still online and working and can be found here.You can mail me all your suggestions,criticisms and contributions.
