Snails rarely get to die in peace in my care.
Whenever I notice a snail, usually a trochus, is unwell or growing infirm, i offer them up to my mantis shrimp. It may not be the most "humane" death for a snail, but it provides my mantis with both a varied diet and enrichment, which is kind of a win to me.
Anyone else do this?
