The odds of seeing an albino moose are astronomical
near Mine Center , ON is even greater than astronomical.
To see two of them together is nearly impossible.

Cuban Land Snails (....and no, they are not hand painted. They are painted by mother nature herself.)

^^ Awesome Snails ^^

** Below, freaky Snails **

First, we have Stoner Snail... Love them red eyes!

Fricking Gigantor Snail!!!

This Snail's almost a "foot" long!

This Snail IS A FOOT!!!! Ok, sorry... Not a real Snail.... but good for the necessary DDave injection of humor into a posting!

Ok, now the Star Trek, goose-bump raising Snail Pic!

And finally, while my morals are degrading even further, anyone find this photo sensual in a "oh crap I'm gonna kind of way?"

Suddenly, I'm torn between & !!!!!!

That doesn't look so much as a stoner snail as a zombie one :

Weird stuff!

Would you settle for Stoned Zombie Snail?

I'll see your Stoned Zombie Snail, and raise you "this thing"!

I may never go to the beach again!!!!

Triplofusus giganteus or Horse conch,nice!
But still at 24 inches or 60 cms max. it does seem a bit 'disproportionally staged' in that pic.
I always wondered if there are giant versions of Pleurotus ostreatus :

...
Think about that next time you're in the woods and your foot gets stuck in the ground!

Dang! Between giant beach snails and giant forest fungus, I think I'll just stay safe at home in my Hide-a-bush!

And, since this is the Animals Thread, I'll be hiding in my Hide-a-bush with these cute critters!

@clukx , This is part of the DDave "I need to leave work early" incentive plan!

(mod note: meant in a nice way to remind how much we miss our little friends while we're at work!)

Mmm...i'd just make sure not to be seen in that!

Just added a hassel & Hannes pic to stay on topic.

And even later some more from FB:

Ah, the days of the good ole stick! Saved quite a bit of closet space back then as well!!!!

Seriously, I do believe this is an Aspie thing... my two cats have enough cat toys for a shelter!
there can't be luckier animals than those that live with aspies....

Rhetorical question:

Is the flying spaghetti monster an animal?

Moth shows off its huge 30cm wingspan (take a close look at his wingtips)
