Snail
Here are some interesting facts about snails:
Snails have the most teeth of any animal.
Snails can sleep for up to three years.
Some snail species are detritivores, meaning they feed on decaying leaves, wood, and other organic matter.
Snails are born with shells, but the shell is soft and transparent at first.
Snails need calcium to harden their shells, so the first thing a newly hatched snail does is eat the casing of its own egg to absorb calcium.
Most land snails are hermaphrodites, meaning they have both male and female reproductive organs.
Freshwater snails usually reproduce asexually.
