Dear Kurt,
I am not trying to give the impression that I consider my getting these
snails more important than the future of native species. I have a
question,
and it is simply out of curiosity. If only a single specimen of a foreign
species
was obtained for study, could it do any damage if it escaped? It seems to
me
that without a mate, it would not be able to reproduce, and therefor
would not
wreak havoc. I am now going to study just local snails, and, if the
theory above
is correct, I might have one Euglandina rosea.

Best Regards,
James
