African snails have strong viability and a wide range of food sources. Almost any plant can be eaten and can harm nearly 500 kinds of crops. This is the time when there is plenty of food. If they are very hungry, they come to eat paper and walls (to get calcium). It is also their indiscriminate eating characteristics that make them easy to carry a large number of parasites.
They are likely to leave some viruses on the crops they have eaten, such as eosinophilic meningitis, which will be infected if they accidentally touch them with their hands. Although most bacteria and viruses can be destroyed at a high temperature of 100℃. However, the safety of eating is still a big test, and it is recommended not to eat it easily.
In case the virus or bacteria inside are not completely killed in the cooking process, the human body will still infect the human body after eating. There are many cases of eating African giant snails. As early as 1985, a family of five in Taiwan Province Province suffered from bacterial infection because of eating African giant snails raw, but only the youngest son in a foreign country survived.
Even dogs are not immune. In Bhutan, many dogs ate snails and died of Angiostrongylus cantonensis infection. These shocking cases make many people flinch from eating African snails, and even Indians who grew up drinking Ganges water stay away from them!
Actually, people all over the world have the habit of eating snails. There is a dish in western food called French roasted snail, and India also has the habit of eating local snails. India is a magical country, where many things we dare not try become delicious. For example, Ganges water, cow dung, and many "delicacies" on the street are basically mushy.
In many videos, we can see that some Indian foods need to be added with dozens of "seasonings", which are basically mushy and flattering. Therefore, many people think that they are very resistant to diseases, and all foreign "delicious food" can't be violated.
However, after seeing the horror of African snails, even Indians who dare to drink Ganges water avoid it. Even a large number of African snails appeared in some places, which led them to move. The local government is also very worried, let the local people try to eliminate the giant snails in Africa after seeing them, and observe them carefully when transporting goods to prevent snails from migrating.
It can be seen that African snails are an annoying species wherever they are!
African snails carry a lot of viruses, bacteria and eggs, persecuting crops and crops. Please destroy it in time and soak it in salt water to prevent other animals from eating by mistake. With more and more exotic species today, we should be more careful to ensure our own safety!
