This He Snail cannibals
The color pink, rubbery and slimy. The size is pretty amazing, 20 cm in length. It may be that this snail species in the family, including the most jumbo or giant. Imagine, if you are browsing the woods this big slimy animals clinging to the legs, neck, or your back.

Could it happen when you visit Kaputar Mountain area, north of New South Wales, Australia. Giant slug with the scientific name Triboniophorus aff. graeffei only exist in the remote mountain region. Rarely one can see him. They only came out after the rain. Although the main food plants, giant snails also eat small insects and often prey on other snails. So called cannibal snails.

As mentioned above, rarely seen with the naked eye, except at certain times. As reported Michael Murphy, National Park rangers to the ABC (Australian Broadcasting Corporation), "On a good morning, you can walk around and see hundreds of them, but only in one area."
