Questions

Some questions that arose from a recent discussion about the snails were:

• Bring the issue (endandgered and how?)
• Population and where they live and how many
• What is the snail features and characteristics and compare with garden snail
• The below questions of markings – compare with other species

 

1. How many populations are there?
2. What is a snail’s home range or how far does or can a snail travel anyhow?

 

3. How many snails are there on the various remnant patches of Cumberland Plain?

 

4. We wondered if we could mark them and do capture mark release recapture studies to estimate the size of the populations? During the course of this conversation another question arose.

 

5. What can we mark snails with?

 

6. Will it hurt them (kill them)?

 

7. Will they be more vulnerable to predators?

 

8. Has this been done before? Yes

 

9. Will the UV pigments and mediums use to mark the snails last long enough to be used in a study on snails?
