Animal India - Slug

Animal India - Slug

Slug, or land slug, is a common name for any apparently shell-less terrestrial gastropod Mollusca. Most species of slugs are generalists, feeding on a broad spectrum of organic materials, including leaves from living plants, lichens, mushrooms, and even carrion. Some slugs are predators and eat other slugs and snails, or earthworms. Slugs' bodies are made up mostly of water and, without a full-sized shell, their soft tissues are prone to desiccation. They must generate protective mucus to survive. Many species are most active just after rain because of the moist ground or during nighttime.

                      Bagworm moth larvae are currently living in protective baglike cases that they have made out of their own silk and plant materials. The bags, which range in size from 6 to 152 mm (0.25 to 6 inches), are constructed from silk and bits of leaves, twigs, and other debris. These bags are attached to trees, rocks, or fences while the larvae are resting or during their pupa stage. The larvae are extending their heads and thoraxes from their mobile cases to eat the leaves of host plants. Some bagworm moth larvae, known as log cabin caterpillars, are rebuilding their wooden homes multiple times as they grow larger. While the larvae of some species are eating lichen, others prefer green leaves. Bagworms usually occur on evergreens such as cedar or juniper, but they may also be found on deciduous trees like honey locusts. In this case, the bags are covered with small leaves and twigs from the host tree. A bagworm moth larva is moving through the house with their distinctive appearance in Tehatta, West Bengal, India, on
