Amazing, isn’t it? 🙂 It’s one of the examples of Giant African land snails – they are very popular in Western world, so that they are always confiscated at airports.
The species is not endangered, quite contrary – they are very invasive, so their imports and population need to be regulated. They are native to west Africa: coasts of Sierra Leone, Liberia, Ivory Coast, Togo, Benin, Ghana, and Nigeria. It’s the largest snail species in the world, whose shells sometimes reach size of 18cm.
Like almost all pulmonate gastropods, these snails are hermaphrodites, having male and female sex organs. Each snail lays up to twelve hundred eggs per year.
