German customs officials say a trail of slime led them to a stash of almost 100 giant African land snails.
German customs officials say a trail of slime led them to a stash of almost 100 giant African land snails and other items hidden inside bags at Duesseldorf Airport this month.
In a statement Friday, authorities said officials stumbled over one of the snails on a baggage truck and initially thought it was a toy until it started moving. By following the trail left by the 20-centimeter snail, they found a bag with a hole, with another snail already peeping out of it — possibly preparing a dash for freedom.
