SNAILS PACE


giant snails are invading coral gables in florida

public health officials have issued warnings to the public

ironically,  the city used snail mail

- guess there's no hurry...

these snails are said to be making a run at the city

- don't laugh

the health department stated that these giant africanized snails

present a major public health hazard

mainly from the parasites that they carry

this particular parasite apparently does not like fast food

also, the snails have destroyed many gardens in the area

also, in barbados five years ago these mollusks thrived on

the tropical island, destroyed crops and prompted calls

for the government to eliminate the slimy pests

- in barbados, as in america,

the people can't defend themselves from these monsters

during 'nocturnal snail hunts' in both countries

the hunters reported the snails giving each other

piggy-back rides so they could advance more quickly

city officials in coral gables predict that at their current rate

the small army will completely reach the city limits

by late in 2019


HERE'S A QUICK SNAIL JOKE FOR YOU:
A snail walks into a bank to make a deposit. Then a turtle comes in and robs the bank.
Afterward, the police are interviewing the snail and asks him to recount what had happened.
The snail says, "I don't know, it all happened so fast."
