The Streeler is a giant snail native to Africa, but has been successfully bred by wizards in Europe, Asia and North America.
Behaviour[]
The Streeler changes colour hourly, and leaves behind a trail of venom so toxic that it burns all vegetation that it touches.
Kept as pets[]
It is kept as a pet by those who enjoy its kaleidoscopic colour changes. Streeler venom is one of the few known substances that can kill Horklumps.
History[]
The "poisonous orange snails" seen in the Magical Menagerie in 1993 may have been Streelers.
Protection from Streelers[]
Wearing thick protective gloves is a way to avoid getting stung by a streeler's extremely toxic shell.
