Comments | Report submitted by CT DEEP on behalf of Mr. Norris. Original report stated:
We found this snail in Glasgo Pond in Griswold on 8/13/22. It is about one inch long and about 1 inch wide at the base. We have lived here for 30 years and have never seen one of these before. We are assuming that it is an invasive species. |
