Apple Snail Shells at State Park

. .

Shell in Lake Seminole

. .

You can find these large fascinating shells lying around all over Seminole State Park, Donaldsville, Georgia.

. .

The shells are beautiful but the park ranger explained how these snails were an invasive species and their slime has a highly dangerous neurotoxin that can do serious harm to human health. Believe me I got rid of the shells I collected.
