Description
Contrary to popular belief, Arion, often found leisurely making their way across gardens, are not merely simple slugs. These creatures possess the unique ability to absorb toxins from the plants they consume, incorporating them into their bodies as a defense mechanism against predators. This fascinating adaptation ensures their survival in harsh environments, revealing a complex side to what might initially seem like a mundane creature. Their vibrant colors aren't just for show but a warning of their potential toxicity.
