Snails

Wallpaper Description:

Other terrestrial molluscs are only known to us from specimens in museums, and a shell can be all that is left of a snail species. “More molluscs have gone extinct in historic times than mammals, birds and reptiles put together – which is why the first thing you need is to have a decent inventory of what species are out there and to know to what extent they are threatened, such as the IUCN European Red List of Threatened Species. The good news is that many invertebrates will respond well to measures taken to help protect their habitats.”
