Mating Leopard Slug Ornaments
Finished two felt handmade ornaments of mating leopard slugs. This is the only time of the year I allow myself to use glitter and I must say, it fits their mating organs perfectly!
I’m planning on selling ornaments, but I don’t think I’ll have the time to finish them before Christmas, so I’ll probably list them next year (my ornaments will stay throughout the whole year obviously…)
If you haven’t seen leopard slugs mating, I highly recommend watching this amazing video: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=wG9qpZ89qzc

Who won the dick battle? I heard some species of slug battle with their dicks to determine who the female is.
Haha really? I didn't know this XD I think they both get pregnant :)
I could be mistaken. I heard this info a long time ago and it could be another worm-like creature entirely.
This is true for some species - which penis ist faster/stronger will be the male and fertilizing the other slug/snail. but often they just fertilize each other, so this is also true. slugs and snails don't really give many fucks about that :'D (although there also are many species who have different sexes and have male and female kinds and not the 'both' kind of what most gastropodes have)
Ohh that's very interesting!! Thank you for sharing that info!
I actually saw that live in nature this summer. In front of my fucking window. I'm not kidding. There where two leopard slugs climbing up the window which reaches to the ground infront of my working desk and I was curious, what they were doing and kept watching them for a while. And than - BAM - they found each other and curled up into that slimy dance and hung down on their slime thread. That was fascinating! Sadly the thread wasn't good enough to hold them and they dropped to the ground only a few seconds after. And while one of the slugs climed up again, the other one was like 'fuck that' and ust went away :'D
wahah that sounds so cute though! I haven't seen this yet but I do hope to one day! We have lots of leopard slugs in my mom's kitchen at night, they probably found atiny opening somewhere :s
Amazingly clever -- and the video really gets the point home.
Very interesting and kind of beautiful..
