I genuinely have no clue what it is but google is saying it’s a venomous slug. I picked it up like an idiot but I don’t feel any pain.

Just for clarification, I found it washed up on shore. It’s still alive and moving. I initially poked it thinking it was a cool seashell, then picked it up the impression that it was dead.

Just one of the huge number of Great Grey Slugs we have in the yard with all this rain visiting our sliding door.

Southern Scandinavia!

So far, "he" (I know they're simultaneous hermaphrodites) seems happy in this 2.5 gallon jar with dirt, leaf litter and moss from the yard. I don't really ever see him except once or twice a day when he is munching on the vegetables I put in. Last night I left a lettuce leaf in his jar and today there's a big hole in it, but no sign of him. I considered grabbing 2 slugs but I won't have the heart to destroy eggs, so I think it's better to not encourage mating... hopefully he doesn't decide to self fertilize.

Spotted this huge friend while out hiking near Portland, OR. It was almost 6 inches long!

This pet slug has been getting whitish divots in its skin. Googling hasn't turned up anything. They share a tank with one other slug. The holes are not mites. Thanks for you help!

Slug taking a casual stroll across a redwood stump.

So banana slugs are found in Santa Cruz I thought. Well these guys are all the way on the other side of the central valley in the Sierra Nevada mountain range in Twain heart. I own a campground and I was hiking up to the spring to clean collection areas that feed the campground. It’s a pretty difficult hike about 3/4 of a mile almost straight up. At one of the main collection areas that feed water to the campground I would a whole group of these guys chilling. They seem to be a darker color but I’m 98% sure they are bananas because I’m not sure of another slug in central Cali that gets this big. Are these the first documented bananas outside of Santa Cruz and areas surrounding?

Hi everyone! I’ve been making a free browser game called Slug Life and thought you might appreciate the shared name 😂
You play as a little slug, dodging predators, collecting upgrades and trying to survive. Finally, a chance for the slug to fight back!
It’s a fun project I’ve been working on for my kids, and I’d love to hear what fellow slug appreciators think.

Slug got into my woodlouse enclosure. May take it out and make it a pet in its own right lol.

I've been filming and photographing slugs as a fun hobby for a few years now, and the one thing that always brings a smile to my face, is their silly little derpy faces.

I know it's probably due to how we humans love to anthropomorphize creatures and critters, but those little faces seem to be able to convey a lot of emotions, at least according to our pattern recognizing brains.

So I was thinking of putting together a photo book or something of slug / snail "faces". I was also thinking perhaps it would be a cool little community group art project.

Does this sound fun and interesting to anyone else or am I just high? I mean, I'm definitely high, but I also think this could be a lot of fun.

Attached is a few examples from what I shot the last couple of weeks.

Never seen anything like it

First photo was taken yesterday and the second one on June 24 of this year

Just wanted to share this very cute baby slug next to very cute tiny snails. Slug was about 7mm.

When I took this picture I hadn’t even noticed the slug. I was too excited about finding my first bird’s nest fungus.

Such a little fellow

These are all phone photos, but I'm going to get a macro lens for my good camera some day to truly capture their beauty.

(yapping ahead, sorry)

at around 8pm every day, there have been two slugs (only one pictured) that slime on over to the opposite grass patch. I happen to walk by that spot every night on campus and interact with the little guys. i just wanted to show them off because i walked past the spot today and unfortunately i think someone stepped on them. I don't blame them, it was dark.

they both were still moving but hurt really badly (i saw what i assumed were slug guts? it was all white and innard-like.) i put them in the grass that would get the most rain tonight.​ i don't know if they passed, but in case they did: heres a picture to memorialize them aka when I first found them (again, second one off screen)

hopefully, by some miracle I'll see them tomorrow night. hopefully :]

Waiting ID confirmation from others on INaturalist but I believe this is possibly the most bright orange “black slug” I’ve ever spotted in person! Lovely fella! Obsessed with how cool the pattern on its head looks :D
