Four volunteers participated in this week's survey under hot, humid and overcast conditions. We found a young example of one of the more interesting of our central Texas land snails (see below). The Striate Wolf Snail is an active hunter that pursues and attacks its prey: other snails. Various jokes, all based on fact, can be made about the pace at which this action occurs.
