Can slugs "see"? Well, yes....sort of. My class and I just finished examining the common garden slug. Slugs have two pair of antennae, also known as "tentacles". The first pair of antennae is located near the slug's "mouth" low on its body and are used as "sensors" to feel and smell. The upper pair of antennae are the slug's "eyes". The slug has a very primitive eye in that it can only see light and dark. The slug's eye is not able to focus like ours so the slug can only "see" based on the level of light present around it. It does not see pictures or images like we do. My class thought the "optical tentacles" were cool because if you look very closely, you can actually see a very small black dot at the tip of each antenna. This is the slug's "eye".
