Sea Snail

An unusually large sea snail, found on the banks of a river in East Godavari district of Andhra Pradesh, has been reportedly fetchedRs 18,000 at an auction.

The research is an ongoing international collaboration between scientists from the US, Denmark and Australia.

The venom of a carnivorous sea snail could hold the key for artificial, fast-acting insulin for diabetes patients, an Australian study has found.

This aptly-named Arctic "sea butterfly" (Limacina helicina) is the subject of a new study in the Journal of Experimental Biology. It turns out that its way of swimming doesn't just look like flying - the mysterious creature really does use the same biomechanics as animals that fly through the air.

The next class of powerful life-saving drugs may be residing at the sea bottom -- with molluscs, a category that includes snails, clams and squid, and their bacterial companions, the likely source of the next class of powerful medications, says a new...

Traffic moved at snail's pace with everybody wanting to drive on Mumbai's engineering marvel as toll of Rs 50 being waived off for four days.
