Land Snails
All land snails are gastropod mollusks, meaning that they belong to the same group of octopuses, which are part
of the phylum Mollusca. At the same time, they are members of the class Gastropoda, which includes all snails and slugs.
Being a mollusk means lacking an internal skeleton and bones, but snails are protected.

Snails have a single spirally coiled shell. They have muscular foot used for creeping in most species. Land snails
are incredibly slow. Their forward speed depends on the species, but usually, it is between 0.5 and 0.7 inches per second.
While moving, snails leave behind a trail of slime, a lubricant they produce to allow them to go on any terrain without
injuring its body. Land snails aren’t able to hear at all, but they have eyes and olfactory organs. They use their sense of
smell to help them find food being their most important sensory organ.

Snails feed on very small things. Most of them scrape or brush particles from surfaces of rocks, seaweeds, animals
that don't move, and other objects. For feeding, snails use a radula, a hard plate that has teeth.

Their average size is 5.08 until 15.24 centimeters in length. Their tail is around 7.62 centimeters long. Their body
have shades of brown/yellow/grey fur with white and black stripes down the back.

marmot, the groundhog is a member of the squirrel family, Sciuridae.

This stout-bodied rodent weighs up to 6 kg (13 pounds) and has a body length of up to 50 cm (about 20 inches) and a
short, bushy tail up to 18 cm (7 inches) long. They have thick fur on the upper parts. The fur ranges in colour through
various shades of brown. The fur in the feet are darker, and the underparts are buff.

Although groundhogs dig deep and extensive burrow systems, they are also good swimmers and can climb tall shrubs and
sizable trees. They are most active in the morning and evening, eating grasses and other green plants, as well as some fruit
and the bark and buds of trees. They feed heavily in summer and early fall, accumulating huge fat reserves for the winter.
The animal is a true hibernator.

Crickets
 Well, crickets live in almost every environment. They are found in fields and meadows, forests and grasslands,
marshes and swamps, trees and bushes, and even caves, beaches, in anthills and underground.

Crickets use their long antennae to sense things around them, but also to detect smells. Crickets use their simple
eyes to detect light and shadow. They have complex eyes which are made up of many hexagonal lenses. They can see in
every direction. They eat decaying plant matter and seedlings.

Did you know that crickets are usually black or brown? The average cricket is about 2.54 cm long. Crickets can
