May have been better for your health if you ate the slug

havent seen them metro but seen plenty up around Lancelin, especially at eddies point.

they just look like large blackish slugs amongst the weed on the beach. sorry, thats all I know.

Sea Slugs( Nudibranchs) we call them, some are alive when they wash up on the beach not good for dog to lick or eat
Generally oblong in shape, nudibranchs can be thick or flattened, long or short, ornately colored or drab to match their surroundings. They can grow as small as 0.25 inches (6 millimeters) or as large as 12 inches (31 centimeters) long.

They are carnivores that slowly ply their range grazing on algae, sponges, anemones, corals, barnacles, and even other nudibranchs

Hi Rad and Mal........wish you guys all the best for 2011.

Hope your dog gets better and the vet is not cruel.

Thanks again guys for the great session while I was visiting. Not even so sad about the board as I really am liking my back up board.

Looking forward to my next trip and just maybe we don't have honking easterlies for a change.

gday gruizi,same to you,just rang the vet, dogs barking they say shes going to be ok, going to keep her overnight just to be shure or just so they can bore it up me. no more sea slug slaying for me

Should google the picture of these some look amazing but not to many black ones though.
