Only land snails teleport. Sea snails have developed a method of FTL travel involving the utilisation of negative mass.

Maybe they dont teleport, but have invented a cloaking machine so that they are invisible to us, then they move position and turn the cloak off again?

When I turned on my PC this morning, on the screen were lots of snails congregating around a tin of luncheon meat - they were Spam e-snails.

But, seriously folks, a lot of the snails round where I live drive customised cars - the Renault Clio being amongst their favourite models. These Gary Snails meet in the carpark of our local Tesco in the early hours with a cacophany of BOOM tsssshh BOOM tsssshh music blaring from speakers the size of Tahiti. The speakers are so big they can't actually fit them in their cars so they leave them in the carpark and just plug in when they get there.

Oh dear, you weren't paying attention were you. It says docslodge. Lodge, not dam. tsk!
Anyway, why shouldn't beavers use outside contractors? Don't be specieist!

maybye, just maybe, snails were told by god that snails cant ever be seeen teleporting so they decided not to but the snails still belived that the snails couldn't be seen going fast. so the snail is always slow when we look at it but, when we look away khzam!!!! there off at a whizzing 22,000 mph untill someone sees then or they get tired  [O8)]

There was an Indonesian folktale telling about a mousedeer having a race with a snail. The mousedeer was so confident he would win since snails are slow. When the race began, the mousedeer ran on the land while the snail swam through the river. Everytime the mousedeer called for the snail, the snail always showed up in front of him. In the end, the snail won. The trick was there were multiple identical snails inside the river. Everytime the mousedeer called, a snail which was located in front of the mousedeer should appear himself, giving the impression that the snail ran/swam faster than the mousedeer.
