SNAIL - certainly is not foreign to our ears, the majority of people that came to mind was the slowest animal in the world. This is sometimes a slow nets, others are often called the slug. But you know why the snail running very slowly? How does a snail's pace when walking? and why did he discharge when running ?? rather than confused, we just consider the following explanation.

Snail is slow due to the different legs of the human foot and other animals. Her legs is actually an organ that consists of muscles. The shape is flat, elongated, and located at the very bottom of its body.

Fluid is expelled snail slime. Mucus comes from glands in the body, it serves slime lubricate and moisturize the feet so that he could easily walk. Mucus also protects the body from injury by sharp objects. Understandably, snails sometimes walking on tree branches are sharp and can be perched on the blade.

Based on research, snails only have a maximum speed of 0.03 miles per hour. Assuming, 1 mile is equal to 1.609344 km, meaning a snail is only able to walk up to the extent of 1.34 cm in 1 minute. This record makes the snails as the slowest animal in the world. While the second slowest animal strapped to a giant tortoise with a speed of 0.13 to 0.30 miles per hour.

With the speed of it, the snail becomes very easy to catch since prehistoric times. Snails belong to the soft animals (molluscs) of the class Gastropoda which means running with the stomach. Slugs or snails are animals that originated in East Africa. Although running very slow, snails are very easy to breed. As a result, snail spread to all regions of the world.
