I can't believe what I've just seen. Two snails on the arm of the garden bench. Leaned in to have a look and one had the other's head stretched like an elastic band (had pulled its head all the way into its own shell).
I presume he was eating it. Poked him and he just retreated with other snails head somewhere in there. His neck is streched about 3 cm long...don't think it's coming out of this encounter alive!
Bit shocked, I didn't know they did this?! Anyone else seen this?
