They're disgusting creatures, don't you think? We get those brown ones here too....they look like they have an orange/yellow fringe.

thats the ones!!! I don't think they are disgusting....getting slimes by them is nasty, but I think of them as snails without shells...I am into all the creepy crawlies no one else likes....

This is our biggest slug, but I think that it might be protected or poisonous (or both).

edit: dear moderators, it is now blocking the scientific name of a species of slug of the genus Limax.

I'm okay with most things, but giant slugs...pointless!

Followed the link but couldn't find a picture?

Well, the problem is that the later part of the scientific name is very similar to a certain racial slur, and gets blocked by the forum's software. Just look for "Limax c.i.n.e.r.e.o.n.i.g.e.r".

[adamanteus]

Okay. I'll have another look!

[adamanteus]

Found the picture, Stefan...mmmm lovely, thanks for that!!

While we're on the subject:
Have you ever seen a Banana Slug?
They're common in the Santa Cruz Mountains and the colour is freaky

I've seen pictures, but never a real one. Maybe we should open a slug forum. But if we do, I'm not joining!!
