Meet Bert the Gorilla - The Unlikely Superstar of the Slug World!
EDITORS COMMENTS
. In this photo print, we are introduced to SPH-3406, affectionately known as Bert the Gorilla. Don't be fooled by his name though; he may not have the brawn of an actual gorilla, but he certainly has captured our hearts with his unique charm! Originally hailing from southeastern Europe, Bert made a surprise appearance in Windermere back in 1972 and quickly became a sensation throughout Britain and Ireland. This adventurous slug has since conquered most corners of these lands, including Cornwall where this snapshot was taken. Caught red-handed (or rather slimy-footed) under stones in a picturesque garden, Bert seems to be enjoying his time exploring new territories. With his vibrant colors and distinctive markings, it's no wonder he stands out among other molluscs. Steve Hopkin's expert photography skills have truly brought out Bert's personality in this shot. From his mischievous grin (if slugs could grin!) to those curious eyes that seem to say "What are you looking at?", every detail is beautifully captured. So next time you stumble upon an unexpected visitor like Bert in your own garden or local park, take a moment to appreciate their uniqueness. After all, who knew that slugs could become such fascinating creatures?
