Boston discovered a ‘tiger slug’ down in the wild area.
In no time we had magnifying glasses to examine this beautiful
creature. I asked, “why do you think it
is called a Tiger Slug?” Boston quickly
responded, “’cause I can see black stripes” “Yeah, like a tiger” added Hayley.
We watched it’s feelers stretch and quickly shrink
back, it moved it’s way slowly around the cable reel and eventually found it’s
way back into the hole It obviously came out of and curled back up – “for a
snore” Boston commented.
We explored the internet to discover Slugs are
nocturnal and a detrivore (an
organism that feeds on and breaks down dead plant or animal matter). Plus other interesting facts.
