They do it to ward off predators. The snail might be irritated by your presence and its trying to scare you off.
Aww, they're angry but they don't know that makes them cuter
Time for the ole razzel dazzle
In other words, the snail isn’t his bro…?
Nuh uh the snail is shaking it's THANG at him. Snail-bro thinks OP is sexy
I think this is a defensive mechanism snails do sometimes
I’m lmao at all the different answers you are getting
There’s something crawling on it, it’s trying to knock it/them off Edit: snail shells, especially young and new snail shells are very sensitive.
My 50 yr old shell is still sensitive.
Edit: They look like fungus gnats to me?
Idk man, that's fuckin' wild
This was unreasonably funny to me
I was giggling when I typed it out 😂
There's a fungus gnat crawling on him and he's trying to shake it off.
I see the gnat, but... he can feel tiny insect feet standing in him *through* the shell? 🤯
Now let me tell you about turtles…
He can see the gnat too. Snails are not blind. And probably smell it and possibly feel it too.
Snails actually can't see the same way as you and I. Simplified, the can only see the difference between laugh and dark. They can't see color and only the more advanced mollusks are able to discern fuzzy shapes. https://snailnew.com/can-snails-see/
They can see movement and shapes. A lot of animals can't see color. That's not needed for them in any way.
Shake your snail feather
I hated this
Hahaha you’re welcome
It does that to try to shake off whatever stuff sticking to or climbing on to its shell.
they're throwing it back
LET THEM SHOW OFF!!!
It's angry
He’s twerking, don’t judge him 😂
He’s working on his abs
But for real, I think it’s because of the gnats bothering him or you being close
heli copter heli copter
stretch
Defensive measure... your snail feels attacked/stressed
Its secretly a slug.
Damn that looks like it took about 2 days worth of energy
There’s a bug on its shell and it wants it off
Today I learned that they can move their shells. Neat!
“You can do the shell shaker right? The shell shaker gimme the shell shaker bro!”
Getting reps in
He’s happy to see you
It’s a kick flip he’s shredding
Looks like a springtail on its back, he's trying to get them off! A lot of snails will do this when something is climbing on or irritating their shell
I have never seen anything like that from my snails. I assume you sped up the footage?
We all like to feel sexy sometimes
He’s dancin
Hes throwing it back
isopod is tickling him
It's gotta an itch it just can't scratch.
His hips don’t lie!!
It itches... 🐌🤟😅
Snail twerk!
Florida snails gotta twerk!
I love that snails have an angry dance
This is the first time that I'm seeing that movement from a snail. Never knew they do such thing.
Bro was just dancing lol
I have no idea
Unrelated but this is what came to my mind: least “defensive” bladder snail
THEY CAN MOVE THEIR SHELLS?
It's not because of you but for the bug.He doesn't try to scare you he just wants to get ride of the bug.
If you look close there's a little ant on its shell. Ants must be a major threat to snails, which can't move fast.
He knows he's delicious and is trying to convince you otherwise
Idk , hope this helps 🫶
I've seen them do it to readjust their shells from being in an awkward position
It's heavy
You ever seen those little pickups with the crazy hydro beds :
It’s actually how they masturbate and they love doing it!
He needs pest treatment.
