WHEN THE SNAIL GOES OUT OF ITS SKIN

Have you ever seen a snail? Snails are small animals that often have an outer shell to protect them. But did you know that snails can change their skin?

Snails are mollusks, which means they have soft bodies. To protect their bodies, snails have a hard outer shell. But if a snail needs to, it can change its skin. This means that the snail will shed its outer protective shell and form a new one. Snails are able to do this because they have a special type of skin. It is called a mantle and it helps the snail to protect itself. When the mantle gets too tight, the snail will shed its shell and grow a new one. The new shell is larger than the old one and it will fit the snail better.

Snails do this process a few times in their life. This helps them to grow bigger and stronger. It also helps them to avoid predators. By changing their skin, snails can outrun their predators and keep themselves safe. So the next time you see a snail, remember that it can change its skin. It is an amazing process that helps the snail stay safe and strong.
