so a friend of mine has had the hook up on some giant african land snails. still trying to find someone to re ship them from overseas due to the fact that they are illegal (highly invasive)

so despite the legal complications would you keep one as a pet?

If I am going to jail, it's not going to be for a African land snail...

Just knowing it's illegal would be enough for me to not risk my freedom.

I prefer dogs.

Preferably a Boxer, German Shepard, or a Shiba Inu. IMO

I wouldn't keep it as a pet, but a lab-experiment, yes. I'd test it to see if it could handle a 20 foot drop to the ground and a rock-smash to it's shell.

All in the name of science of course.

Getting a giant land snail is just WEIRD. Great deal or not I wouldn't get one.

After searching info for one of those things...I, myself will turn your ass in if I hear of you getting one. That is about insane. Yes, lets jeopardize US crops, and agriculture. Makes perfect sense. :no:

Hm... don't think I need a snail... that thing is as big as my Chihuahua.

The slime trails that those things probably leave is enough for me to say no.

i still think they would make an epic rad pet, but the chances of ACTUALLY getting one here are pretty slim :(
some people just don't understand
