Looking at snail's teeth marks

Day 10 of #30dayswild - “It’s a rainy one today which is fantastic as its given me the perfect opportunity to look for snails as they love the damp conditions.

My adventure to look for snails actually started indoors as I noticed the roof had signs of snails having scooted across muching their way across the glass. How can I tell? Well these funny little triangular shapes are the tell tail signs of snail teeth as they literally have thousands of teeth on something called a band like structure called radula, that pick up particles as they go and they leave behind this really distinct and awesome pattern!

I loved looking at these last year for 30 Days and couldn’t resist another look this year!”

Why not go on a snail hunt and see if you can see any or any teeth marks?!
