They're disgusting creatures, don't you think? We get those brown ones here too....they look like they have an orange/yellow fringe.

Limax cinereo***** - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

This is our biggest slug, but I think that it might be protected or poisonous (or both).

edit: dear moderators, it is now blocking the scientific name of a species of slug of the genus Limax.

Well, the problem is that the later part of the scientific name is very similar to a certain racial slur, and gets blocked by the forum's software. Just look for "Limax c.i.n.e.r.e.o.n.i.g.e.r".

While we're on the subject:
Have you ever seen a Banana Slug?
They're common in the Santa Cruz Mountains and the colour is freaky

Re: New food item
I've seen pictures, but never a real one. Maybe we should open a slug forum. But if we do, I'm not joining!!
