Yes. I wondered, also. When I was watching it, I could see a little mouth opening and closing while it munched the leaf. It was pretty cool.

is the snail eating the leaf? I have always wondered how snails eat!

Thank you Ava.

I've moved this snail from the Arthropod category to the Other category for you. Snails and slugs are Mollusks. Arthropods have an exoskeleton and jointed limbs in at least one phase of their life. Think dragonfly, bee, crab, and ant.
