【No. 0385】Snails

We often see snails on concrete walls after the rain.
Do you know the reason?
Since snails' shells are mainly made of calcium carbonate, they are able to extend their shells by incorporating calcium.
Also, when concrete gets wet, calcium carbonate ooze out.
Yes, they come on concrete walls to eat calcium carbonate that oozes out of concrete.
By the way, snails have about 12 thousand teeth, and don't have genders.

カタツムリ
カタツムリは雨上がりによく、コンクリートの壁で見かけます。
この理由をご存知でしょうか。
カタツムリの殻は主に炭酸カルシウムでできており、カルシウムを取り込むことで殻を大きくすることができます。
そして、コンクリートは雨に濡れると炭酸カルシウムが染み出します。
そう、彼らはコンクリートから染み出た炭酸カルシウムを摂食しているのです。
ちなみに、カタツムリは合計1万2000本の歯があり、性別はありません。

Thank you very much always for correcting my post!
So it would seem. In Japan, cooked snails are known as a kind of fancy French dish, which is called escargot. However, maybe I will never eat them, haha.
