      Fun fact : You would think that a snail without a shell would move that bit faster, but it’s actually more sluggish..

    2. Should we not be celebrating the other two? I feel like they had similar journeys to Jeremy and finally got some, too

    3. With a little snail grease this could be a Hallmark© movie. 2 women are approached by a matchmaker to be possible partners for a odd but handsome bachelor, only to fall in love with each other. Jeremy’s ok tho, he sells his 80 trillion dollar company to save Christmas or something and finds love.

      He lived alone until the age of 30, at which point he got magic powers, became immortal and started hunting billionaires.

    5. None of the offspring of the other two snails, who were named Lefty and Tomeu, were left-coiled (Lefty was a pet snail of a woman from Ipswich, UK, and Tomeu was discovered in Majorca, Spain, about to become someone’s dinner). Lefty was sent home, they kept Tomeu, who later mated with Jeremy, producing 56 offspring. Jeremy passed away in 2017 at the age of 2 years, before his offspring had the chance to hatch.

      wait so they found a male and a female to mate with him? Why did they find the male to begin with? Emotional support?
