Spec Evo Serina, Pangeacene, 240 Million Years PE- Bird-eating Snail
“The largest slime angler is a fat, swollen creature known as the bird-eating snail, and its name is not inaccurate. Its method of feeding is slightly different from its competitors, and it is not entirely nocturnal. Rather, it wakes up several hours before dusk and climbs to the upper surface of the nanboo’s leaves and to the branching flower stalks at the tops of the plants. It then proceeds to lay down a thick, tacky layer of sticky mucous along the blossom stem and the tops of the leaves below it, which hardens within an hour to a consistency like tar. The snail then returns to its hiding place at dusk, and waits for roosting birds to land on its trap. As diurnal birds search out a secure perch to spend the night, some inevitably alight upon the leaves booby-trapped by the snail and become ensnared. The more they struggle, the more the slime entraps their feathers. As soon as night falls, the snail then glides silently out from its lair, over the hapless birds, and swallows them alive in an enormous, cavernous mouth that it distends from its underside. Additional prey in the form of night-feeding tribbats may continue to get stuck throughout the course of the night, and the snail has only to wait for its food to come right to its table. In one night, the snail can eat as much as a quarter of its body weight in prey, and becomes highly distended. After such a large meal, it will retire for as long as ten days to digest it before setting its trap again. Gorging on anything and everything which gets stuck in its snares, it is no wonder that the bird-eater is able to grow as large as it does.”
