“Welcome to Wendy’s, may I take your order?”
Wow, they're not so different to us after all
Huh, TIL that not all slugs use love darts
The love dart is not a penial stylet (in other words, it is not an accessory organ for sperm transfer). The exchange of sperm between both of the two land snails is a completely separate part of the mating progression. Nevertheless, recent research shows that use of the dart can strongly favor the reproductive outcome for the snail that is able to lodge a dart in its partner. This is because mucus on the dart contains an allomone (pheromone-like) compound that promotes sperm preservation mechanisms in the female.
That's pretty metal of them \m/
Who, Slug? You're waiting for fucking Slug?"
