Pouch Snail

Pouch snails (Class Gastropod)

Key features:
- Shell opens to the left
- Presence of a fleshy "foot" indicates the snail is alive.

Snails in this category can be distinguished from "other snails" by the opening of the shell. To identify a snail, hold it with the tip of the shell pointed up and the opening facing you (as pictured). If the opening is to the left side, you have a pouch snail. Do not count empty shells.
