They often have been literally frozen

How a Snail Breathcs.

The breathing operation in a
snail is one of the queerest processes
imaginable and is carried on with
out the least semblance of lungs.
The oridce through which he takes
his supply Of "the breath of life
is of course called the mouth, not
withstanding that it is situated in
the side Of his great suckerlike foot.
The process of breathing is not car
ried on with anything like regular
ity, as ii is in most creatures, the
mouth simply opening occasionally
to let in supply OF fresh air, which
is expelled by the same opening as
soon es the oxygen has been ex.
hausted. The snail's peculiar mouth
is provided with a tongue set with
hundreds OF fine teeth.
