Out on my morning walk I am surprised to see a cruise ship. It is the Viking Neptune. It’s a small ship with a capacity of 930 passengers.
Nobody surfing at Honls this morning. But, I did find the Sunday morning yoga group.
It wasn’t all palm trees and beaches. There was uglyness and evil.
These are giant snails. They are a major pest attacking all manner of vegetation. They are also part of the rat lungworm parasite life cycle that infects humans. Nothing good can be said for them. They were intentionally introduced in 1936.
This pest was also intentionally introduced. And like the African Snail, eradication appears to be impossible.
