A story about snails

The little snail asked his mother: Why do we have to bear this hard and heavy shell when we are born? Mom: Because our bodies have no bones to support, we can only climb, so we need the protection of this shell! Snail: Sister Caterpillar has no bones and can't climb fast. Why doesn't she have to carry this hard and heavy shell?

Mom: Because sister caterpillar can become a butterfly, the sky will protect her. Snail: but brother earthworm has no bones, can't climb fast, and won't become a butterfly. Why doesn't he carry this hard and heavy shell? Mom: Because Brother Earthworm can drill soil, the earth will protect him.

The little snail began to cry: we are so poor that the sky is unprotected and the land is unprotected. Mother snail comforted him: We have shells! We don't depend on the sky or the ground. We're on our own.

This story tells us that people should learn to stand on their own feet, solve their own affairs and overcome dependence.

Snails belong to mollusks, Gastropoda; Feed on plants and lay eggs in soil or trees. Common in tropical islands, but some live in cold regions.

Snails have shells, which are shaped like small snails and have various colors; There are four tentacles on the head. When you walk, your head sticks out, and when you are frightened, your head and tail retract into the carapace together. Snails have saliva, which can inhibit centipedes and scorpions. When it is hot in June and July, it will hang under the leaves and rise upwards until it dies after vomiting.
