The radula is a feeding organ present in most gastropods, cephalopods, and chitons. The radula is flexible ribbon studded with teeth that scrape up pieces of food. In this video, a Florida Fighting Conch rasps its radula against the side of a container in hopes of scraping up some microalgae for a snack!

Behold this glorious Banana Slug (Ariolimax) as it emerges from deep within its mantle (head structure). Out come the slippery upper eye stalks and lower sensory stalks carefully exploring and assessing its surroundings as it munches on the porcini below with its iron imbued scraper (radula). Slugs have rudimentary eye sight, but are still good at distinguishing light/dark as you can see how it responds to shadows from above. They are definitely some of my favorite creatures to find on the fores

Nom nom nom 🐌 Have you ever wondered how a slug eats? Snails and slugs eat with a jaw and a specialized mouthpart called a radula. The radula is a flexible band of thousands of microscopic teeth which helps the slug scrape up food particles. A radula is kind of like a tongue for slugs! Slugs are incredibly important to their local ecosystems because they act as decomposers, breaking down decaying material and returning nutrients to the soil. | Great Smoky Mountains Institute at Tremont

Deep in my banana slug era..Banana slugs are equipped with 4 sensory stalks, 2 eye stalks, and 2 chemical receptor “taste” stalks. They eat using a set of iron imbued scrapers known as a radula. The hole in the side of the head is called a pneumostome, it is where they breathe and breed. .They glide around on a layer of water loving (hygroscopic) slime that serves not only as their way of getting around but also as a defense against predators (licking a banana slug is not a pleasant experience).

Nature on Instagram: "It’s a surprising showdown in slow motion: two slugs fiercely battling over food by swinging their mouthparts at each other in a slug-sized duel. Though often thought of as slow and harmless, even these quiet creatures show a competitive side when resources are on the line.​ Slugs use their radula, a tongue-like organ covered with tiny teeth, to rasp food and interact with rivals. This “mouthpart swinging” is both a feeding tactic and a way to assert dominance, proving that
