Giant African Snails — Achatina fulica — may look harmless, but they’ve become one of India’s most damaging invasive species. Originally native to East Africa, these massive snails were introduced to India over a century ago, likely brought by British colonists for ornamental purposes, biological studies, or as exotic pets. However, without natural predators and with India’s humid tropical climate, their population exploded.

Today, they infest farms, gardens, and even urban areas — feeding on more than 500 plant species including vegetables, fruits, and ornamental plants. Their rapid breeding rate allows a single pair to produce hundreds of eggs in a year, making infestations nearly impossible to control once established. Beyond agriculture, these snails also pose health risks — they carry the rat lungworm parasite, which can cause meningitis in humans.

In this video, we trace how the Giant African Snail first arrived in India, how it spread through trade routes and human movement, the ecological damage it continues to cause, and the scientific and community efforts being made to contain this slimy invasion threatening our biodiversity and food security.
