Slugs play a prominent supporting role in Flushed Away (mainly
singing). The DVD version features a demonstration on making clay
slugs. Identification of the species is problematic-the dentition
does not resemble any radula that I know of, though a possible
parallel can be found under Ligumia recta at

(You can also watch videos of female mussels catching the fish hosts
at this site).
