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.

An NGO, 'Nature&Sauvage Occitanie' organized a gathering in Toulouse for the World Day For the End of Fishing. They wanted to raise awareness about over fishing and over explotation of seas and oceans. Bycatchs are estimated anywhere between 7.3 and 38.5 millions tons per year. The journal Science published a four-year study in November 2006, which predicted that, at prevailing trends, the world would run out of wild-caught seafood in 2048 or before. In 2021, the FAO published statistics about capture : capture production (fish, crustaceans and molluscs) accounted for 92.5 million tonnes in 2019, a decrease of 4.3 percent compared with the previous year.
