yes they do... and it seems that the more disturbing and disgusting the thing looks, the more flavor it has

Why all this rubbish about a snail ? And it does not "explode", it just spits water out in utter despair as a defence, it is only that a big splash lands on the camera lens lol. Maybe there also was some calcite arrows in the fluid to attack. Where do you guys go to school ?
Looks funny, now lets kill it.

@Catfish

It's not a snail, it's fake. Check the full vid (3min) on youtube and you see why I think so.

In the absense of Schroeder, I take the smart-arse throne. CGI stands for Computer Generated Imagery and I would be willing to put my left nugget on the line to say that's a puppet. CGI would take much more time and effort to make it that life-like than a puppet would.

Problem being....you don't have a 'left nugget' to gamble with Mr. no balls

I thought it's one of these (not exactly this species), but they sling their "mantle around the hard cone and look well like the one in the initial video (and yes they're toxic, they throw out their harpoon with water pressure, which may be what you see in vid one)

Here's the full video, at around 0:35 you can see just how fake this is.

They do seem to scatter pretty quickly. Kinda like watching something on the Sci-Fi channel.
