How to pick up a snail humanely

@IngridHbn 3.5: appreciate snail

[clickhere@mastodon.ie]

@IngridHbn Thank you for sharing this. I used to do this sometimes as a child, if I decided a snail needed my "help" to move out of what I thought was a dangerous path!

[webhat@infosec.exchange]

@IngridHbn I kinda knew this, and great to get it confirmed

[goodnewsgreyshoes@mastodon.art]

@IngridHbn This infographic is fantastic!!👀✨

I really appreciate the crystal-clear messaging in these diagrams; that left-side image ALONE communicates all the information the audience needs to recognize that *our natural instinct (to grab & lift immediately) is BAD!*😳‼️

Likewise, the right-side images lay out an easily interpreted memorable sequence of instructions. So good!!😘👌

@IngridHbn
I've learned that here about maybe a year ago. I'm still sad about all the snails I attempted to rescue from being crushed on roads that I picked up as shown on the left side of the image. 😞

[2ndnaturedev@mastodon.nu]

@IngridHbn I believe most are hermaphrodites, so.. them? 😄👍 Thanks for sharing!

[hauntedowlbear@eldritch.cafe]

@IngridHbn
This is really well communicated here, thank you for sharing it.

Although (because I am an atrocious pedant) most land snails aren't a him or a her... they're hermaphrodites!

@IngridHbn them*

@IngridHbn ‼️ EDIT: ⚠️ Illustration not yours 👎 no source given 👎 AI-slop 👎 biologically dubious 👎 🤢 😡 ‼️ ⚠️

disappointing experience.

[radaufheber@troet.cafe]

@2ndNatureDev @IngridHbn or "her+him"? bcause they are both.

[sean@chaos.social]

@IngridHbn thanks a lot for sharing 🐌

[huguesross@mastodon.art]

@IngridHbn this will be useful for future snail-moving

[cy@fedicy.us.to]

Looks fake.

[jackyan@mastodon.social]

@IngridHbn That looks much quicker! I used to put a leaf or something in front of them and see if they would crawl on, then shift them to a safe place. This would take a while!

[ianrogers@mstdn.social]

@IngridHbn is this AI generated infographic?

[nev@flipping.rocks]

@HauntedOwlbear @IngridHbn him and her, really. Or hir, em, them, etc.…

[duncanmsussex@mas.to]

@IngridHbn I feel bad for all the snails I've picked up the wrong way! I think they generally retracted, but still...

[taylor@social.axfive.net]

@IngridHbn Just to jump on the snail sex bandwagon.

[ferrix@mastodon.online]

@IngridHbn @simonzerafa "always boop snail shell to retract before lifting" :)
