At least that's what I thought until I found the next one. I didn't take a picture of that one because I was afraid a pattern might form and the snails would keep getting bigger and bigger and bigger.
Don't publish this stuff, Jorge. If you continue to write about snails in your garden then you'll have Nicolas Sarkozy running about your property before you know it.
Please wash your produce thoroughly if you have snails. The big island has had a breakout of rat lungworm disease and extremely dangerous disease caused by parasites from snails on locally grown produce. One of the risks of organic produce...
Over in Ewa, we're overrun with snails, though it never seems to rain here. I can't figure out how they make it through the daytime without getting all shriveled. Yours is about medium-sized compared to the ones here... lucky you! ;)

I just found out about your blog recently, and I love reading it!!! I have been a fan of yours for a long time, and it is great to read about life from your down to earth perspective! Cheers Jorge!
Thats like the damn cockroaches I find... I see one and think this is the biggest one I have ever seent then two minutes later there's another one. Never have seen bugs as big as they are in Hawaii!
That IS a Giant African Land Snail as Parker said and we have lots here on Maui too. ICK. Word of warning... was hands and all veggies really well. Although they are quite beautiful they are nasty disease ridden monsters...
The other thing about African Snails is that when they die in your garden (which they will), dogs LOVE to roll in them. And if your dog rolls in a dead African Snail, you will know it, because it is the one scent that is a universal gag-maker. I've never seen anyone sniff a dog who has rolled in dead African Snail not immediately retch (not that you're sniffing for fun, mind you, but usually it's because you see a big grey smear on the dog's neck). I grew up in Kailua and it happened too many times!

Feeding it to Nunu wouldn't be a good way to forget about it. But if she was named Pierre, I'm sure she would enjoy snails.

KILL IT DUDE...before they take over your house and start eating your shoes...(it could happen!)
Escargo (sp) the snail must be feed cornmeal for a month before you dine. You dine on him or he and his will dine on your vines.
I LOVE snails. I sometimes try and round them up before the backyard gets mowed, and then put them back afterwards.
Jorge,
Can you say Escargot?
LMAO.
You might have developed a pattern. That snail is quite big enough.

Night of the big snails!!!

Well... it's really big.
And I if were you, I'd be afraid to find bigger snails too...
By the way, that shell is different from common snails' shells, isn't it?

Wow...now I wanna know how much bigger the next snail was! Did you roast them up with some butter? Haha...just kidding!

Which is completely irrelevant.
Anyway. Hello, how are you?
