You will find that snails are the most active at night. They may come out
during the early morning hours as well. Dont waste your time trying to
tell the males and females apart. This is because snails
are hermaphrodites, meaning that they have the reproductive organs of
both sexes on them.
Humans have eaten snails for thousands of years and they are still part of
the cuisine of several European countries. However, people can become ill
if the snails they eat arent properly cooked as some of them can carry a
parasite that can cause meningitis.
