Description
Apple snails (Pomacea sp.) These large aquatic snails are cultivated for food in their native South America. The raising of snails for food is called heliciculture. Elsewhere in the world these snails have become pests where they have been introduced, often as an attempt to control populations of other types of snails. Photographed in Ecuador.
