It is my great displeasure to inform you that snails have teeth.
Yes, the animal that looks like a shell sneezed boogers all over itself has actual teeth! Like a shark or a human. TEETH.
And their teeth are hard!!! Some of the hardest organic material on Earth, according to some very patient scientists.
Their teeth are arranged in rows along a "radula," which is sort of like a tongue.
Snails extend and retract their tooth-covered radula to take tiny bite-sized pieces of food before swallowing.
Sorry that the world we live in is a never-ending tunnel of horrors.
