When the seasons are completely confused, you can see such a picture. It is autumn, the end of October, but warm as in summer.
Snails, who prepared for hibernation, woke up and went in search of adventure.
It is a pity these creatures, at any moment everything can change dramatically, frost will hit and the snails will not be able to find a warm shelter.
I do not know, perhaps in this way nature regulates populations. This year there were a lot of snails. I had to take very careful steps in the forest. Sometimes I heard a crunch under my foot, it was a snail shell cracking under my sole.
I do not think this is a cruel joke, it is just a harsh reality, against which there is no medicine. For something it needs.
