This shriveled snail brings to mind an odd combination.  Instead of a
rocking horse, Timothy (2.2 yrs) has a rocking snail to ride.  Before
we got tired of it and turned it off (which didn't take very long), it
played "You are my sunshine" when one tentacle was squeezed.  It seems
unlikely that most snails would be very happy about sunshine.  It
doesn't look like any of the kleptophotosynthetic sacoglossans.
Perhaps new words like "you make me shrivel and estivate...please send
rain before it's too late" are needed.
