No, you shut up, you e-imbecilè. Rejecting snails is part of my heritage but your sub-zero IQ will not allow you realise that the Nigerian people's cultures are not homogenous. Oponu. Moronike

I don't understand. Is there an infectious disease attributed to snail.

Rat lungworm disease. Nigerians have probably built up a tolerance but it’ll make the average American very ill. This invasive species also ruins crops and causes other damage. No food is worth the risk of meningitis.
There are food grade snails here in the US and imported here but this isn’t one.

macrodata:
Usually, it is wrong to bring in a new alien specie of animal into another ecosystem. It'll bring in new threats to the ecology and disrupt the natural system.

A new specie will introduce new bacteria, diseases & crop damage. This is why so many farmers lose their birds or low crop yield but illiteracy in this part of the world will only make us consider stomach infrastructure than reason common sense

Something that is even reared back here in Nigeria.
The black gene is actually a superior gene amongst all the races of the world. It takes a lot to kill the black man ( Disease and infection wise). We have evolved greatly when it comes to immune strength, a lot of diseases and sicknesses, viruses, bacteria, fungi etc that kill or greatly harm other races will just naturally die in our systems or just cause insignificant disturbance to us.
From Ebola to Covid to Malaria etc etc, the black gene has always proven stronger and more evolved to tackle illnesses compared to other races.

Over in Nigeria, male life expectancy is 54 years compared to 78 years in the US. If the average man in Nigeria lives 54 years and the average American man lives 78, does that make you question your statement?

This species eats crops and a big population can wipe out a field of fruit or vegetables. They also eat paint and stucco and will literally ruin houses and buildings. If someone takes pride in the exterior of their home, it isn’t worth it.
I don’t want to eat anything that can eat paint and stucco then continue to live.

I don't think these very snails are safe to eat and I pray some people don get greedy and put them in the food chain. This same snails problem happened in one of the states in the west coast a few years ago, they were so many that they were eating and causing damages to houses.
Re: Giant African Snails Force US Town Into Quarantine (pic) by DCatt: 5:30am On Jul 04, 2022
I hope they won't use this as how monkeypox came to America. You just can't put anything past the deepstate, democrats always say "never let a good crisis go to waste."

I heard once you sight a snail in the US, the first thing to do is to call the cops, if you touch a snail you are advised to quarantine, any snail involving incident is treated as an emergency. Commercial activities involving snails is worse than cocaine trafficking and can attract a lengthy jail sentence.

Lol. Lies. We day chop snails for Resturant
