Syrinx aruanus, the largest snail in the world, does not resemble the tiny snails we know from our gardens. Instead, Syrinx aruanus reaches nearly 3 feet long, and its shell is shaped like a trumpet .

Plus-size snail, Gee Geronimo, was the largest African land snail ever to be recorded. Measuring 39.3 cm from snout to tail, he entered the Guinness Book of World Records back in December 1978.
