Banana Slug Sex

How do banana slugs mate?
———- from Sagebrush Shorty of Detroit, MI
With great reluctance. Science has established that banana slugs find themselves just as repulsive as we do. Yet, in order for the species to survive, they must mate. Since no one but a banana slug would be willing to do the job, it falls on reluctant banana slugs to breed with each other. Contrary to popular belief, the slime you see on a slug has nothing to do with reproduction; it has to do with revulsion. It’s the liquid result of a creature literally trying to crawl out of its own skin in an effort to run away from its reproductive duties. So the next time you see a slimy banana slug half-heartedly crawling toward another of its kind, put them both out of their misery. They’ll understand.
