The Dog Turd Slug
The Pacific banana slug is the second-largest species of terrestrial slug in the world, growing up to 25 cm (9.8 in) long (the largest is Limax cinereoniger of Europe, which can reach 30 cm (12 in) in length.)Slugs use two pairs of tentacles to sense their environment. The larger, upper pair, termed "eyestalks," is used to detect light or movement. The second, lower pair is used to detect chemicals. The tentacles can retract and extend themselves to avoid damage.
