FYI, I just learned some slug anatomy:
His eyes are at the ends of the longer "antenna" on his head.
His sensory organs are at the end of the shorter "antenna", just beneath the longer ones.
The hole in his right side is his respiratory cavity, his anus is just under his "shell" (right behind his head), and his mouth has hundreds of little tooth-like things inside to help him eat.
He is an omnivore, and thus will eat decaying plants or animals (carrion). He's pretty cool!
And he can move at top speeds of up to 6 inches per minute, which is what helps him hunt other slugs.
