Announcement: I've finally have a snail named after me:
Meet "Avril Snail" a member of the Helicidae Family

The owner of "Avril Snail" and these great pictures wishes to remain anonymous; however, I will say that Avril Snail speaks with an English accent..

In these pictures, I am the little one

Here I am a little older

Stretching Time!

Out for a walk

On my plate where I'm given lettuce and other food items

Off on another adventure

Good bye for now!

Sadly, I must announce that June 13th, 2002, I was notified that "Avril Snail" passed away from eating some bad cabbage leaves. However, before she died, she found a suitable mate and possibly this mate is about to become a parent. He has burried himself under the leaf litter in his home.
