SECTION 1
SNAIL
Snail is a common name that is applied most often to land snails,
terrestrial pulmonate gastropod molluscs. However, the common name
"snail" is also applied to most of the members of the molluscan
class Gastropoda that have a coiled shell that is large enough for
the animal to retract completely into. When the word "snail" is
used in this most general sense, it includes not just land snails
but also thousands of species of sea snails and freshwater snails.
Occasionally a few other molluscs that are not actually gastropods,
such as the Monoplacophora, which superficially resemble small
limpets, may also informally be referred to as "snails".

LAND
SNAIL
A land snail is a common name for any of the numerous species of
snail that live on land, as opposed to those that live in salt
water and fresh water. Land snails are terrestrial gastropod
mollusks that have shells, (those without shells are known as
slugs.) In reality however, it is not always easy to say which
species are terrestrial, because some are more or less amphibious
between land and freshwater, and others are relatively amphibious
between land and saltwater.

SEA
SNAIL
Sea snail is a common name for snails that normally live in saltwater,
in other words marine gastropod molluscs. The taxonomic class Gastropoda
also includes snails that live in other habitats, such as land snails
and freshwater snails. Many species of sea snails are edible and exploited
as food sources by humans.

Conch is a common name that is applied to a number of different medium
to large-sized sea snails or their shells. The term generally applies
to large sea snails whose shell has a high spire and a noticeable
siphonal canal (in other words, the shell comes to a point at both ends).

HABITAT
It doesn’t take much to create a good snail habitat, but you certainly
need to know your stuff when it comes to the snail lifestyle. Snails
are seen as the world-wide symbol for laziness because of their
characteristic slow pace, but they really can be interesting creatures
to observe. In this article we are going to get to know the snail’s
lifestyle a little better and describe the must-haves in a snail habitat.
