Still Waters Posted August 16, 2013 #1 Share Posted August 16, 2013 When most of us go to the beach, the best souvenir we can hope for is sand in our shoes and maybe a shell or two. But for one little boy it was a little more exciting when a snail emerged from his knee following a trip to the beach. http://www.dailymail...eeks-later.html 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Enoonmai Posted August 16, 2013 #3 Share Posted August 16, 2013 Nice story but snails harbour all kinds of human parasites within them Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wickian Posted August 16, 2013 #4 Share Posted August 16, 2013 Luckily that one was likely trapped in the wound while still in the egg, so it wouldn't have any parasites I don't think. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Eldorado Posted August 17, 2013 #5 Share Posted August 17, 2013 Shame he wasn't French... he coulda had it as a snack. *gags at thought of eating a snail* Seriously though, that must have been one freaky experience for the boy. Glad he's ok and impressed that he's kept it as a pet. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
