Leopard slug (Limax maximus) can grow up to 8 inches. This one is in northern Virginia, in my daughter’s backyard. Gentle leopard slug A surprising morning sight On a wooden path Nature’s composter Hunting slugs, snails and snail eggs, Sometimes the hunted Sliding in mucous It’s not glamorous transport, But those wildcat spots!
