Accidentally poked what I believe to have been a Carolina Mantleslug off his perch when I was moving some fallen wood out of the road this afternoon, which got me thinking.
>Man, this is the first time I've ever actually seen a slug in person
So slug thread! Post slugs, slug trivia, slug encounters and slug-related experiences. Show me those slimy goofingers!
I stepped on a slug while I was barefoot once and it is easily one of the most uncomfortable experiences I've ever had, it made this loud-ass crunch and not even soap could get the slime off of my foot
Oh and I saw a huge Banana slug when I was camping once, pic related

Slug dinner party
There was a slug on my leg at a house party the other night. I went in the garden to get some fresh herbs to add to my drink and I come back in with a slug on my leg.
Found a super large great gray slug. I love how after they slide on my hands my skin feels hydrated and healthy.
Are there any other large slugs in the Midwest besides great gray slugs? I found a large brown one but it does not carry the same color patterns.

You hacve to be over 18 to post here.
What can I say, it's not every day that I'm moving rotten tree trunks out of the middle of the road.
Seen a few, but usually would just see the trails on the sidewalk in the morning walking to school, loved the way they shone in the early sun.
I just found a shit ton of slugs all over my brussel sprout plants. What do?
put out a dish of beer, supposedly
I've never tried it but that's the classic home remedy
The slugs eat my cabbages, so I poison them.
How to cook slugs
grab with gloves
boil them up
rub with salt
remove internal organs
rub with salt again
mix up with vinegar, onions sauce and sugar
serve and eat
?t=298
but how do they taste
It seems to taste like clams
makes sense
Slugs have internal organs? I thought they just assimilated biomass into their bodies like amoebas
>giant pink slugs that only exist on one mountain
Cool weird shit like this is the best
That is a very impressively fat slug
we get regular little brown slugs here pretty often, I usually just toss them over the fence into the vacant neighbour's property because they eat garden plants. I visited cousins that live on the coast once and there were hundreds of huge spotted banana slugs in their yard, it was insane. You couldn't walk across the grass without stepping on them unless you were really careful. It was kinda cool, but also fucking disgusting.
Aren't those edible or something?

anon how is that possible
cool slug btw
Not sure, it's always been snails for me. Which is kind of surprising since I live in Florida. It was an interesting little creature though.
I live in a fucking desert and I still occasionally see slugs...
The only time I've seen slugs is when I would visit my grandparents in England, they were common in the gardens over there
he might live somewhere really dry? IDK how many slugs live in the desert. don't they require a specific amount of moisture?
get that FUCKING cat OUT OF MY SIGHT
