ones (Kolbert 2014‚ 203). According to Kolbert‚ Hawaiians first introduced the rosy wolfsnail in their island to reduce the population of giant African snails‚ which “had become an agricultural pest” ( Kolbert 2014‚ 203). However‚ wolfsnails preyed only on Hawaii’s native snails (Kolbert 2014‚ 203). As a consequence‚ ninety percent of native snail species in Hawaii became extinct (Kolbert 2014‚ 203). While

is no shortage of oxygen for the periwinkle snails either because the surrounding air is composed of around 21% oxygen‚ which is enough oxygen for a periwinkle snail. To survive in conditions that change often‚ periwinkles keep their mantle cavity filled with water. This prevents the gills from collapsing as the gills will be supported and moist‚ allowing them function effectively. When the oxygen from the water is used

dependence is the feeding relationship between the snail kite and the apple snail. The snail kite is an endangered bird and the apple snail is a freshwater mollusk the size of a golf ball (Talley‚ 2003). The apple snails reproduce during the rainy season. The snails will lay thousands of tiny eggs on the stalks of marsh grasses when the water levels are at their highest. As the water recedes‚ the snail kites fly over the Everglades looking for them. Once the snail kite finds them‚ they swoop down and use their

"We watched the snail boil and froth like illicit stills". This shows the individual powerlessness of the snail. Even with the protection of their shell‚ they are still vulnerable to the torture inflicted by the brothers. As they boil and froth they are unable to do anything about it‚ unable to prevent or save themselves
