Slug, or land slug, is a common name for any apparently shell-less terrestrial gastropod Mollusca. Most species of slugs are generalists, feeding on a broad spectrum of organic materials, including leaves from living plants, lichens, mushrooms, and even carrion. Some slugs are predators and eat other slugs and snails, or earthworms. Slugs' bodies are made up mostly of water and, without a full-sized shell, their soft tissues are prone to desiccation. They must generate protective mucus to survive. Many species are most active just after rain because of the moist ground or during nighttime. An insect crawls on the floor of a house and shrinks when touched at Tehatta, West Bengal; India on 28/09/2023.

A pitaya or pitahaya known as ''dragon fruit'' and ''strawberry pear'' is a fruit with leather-like skin and scaly spikes on the fruit exterior of several different cactus species indigenous of the genus Selenicereus (formerly Hylocereus). Plants can begin flowering in as little as six to eight months, although container-grown plants may take up to two years to bear fruit. It is very profitable for farming, once the plant is mature, could see four to six fruiting cycles a year from a plant that is capable of bearing fruit for 20 to 30 years. The biggest enemy of this plant is Fungus (Colletotrichum) and Bacteria (Xanthomonas and Erwinia) attack. Moreover, farmers are advised to prune and destroy the infected plant parts. This dragon fruit cultivation photo was taken at Nabin Nagar, West Bengal, India on 15/09/2023.
