The sedge whorl snail already occurs here in the wild. And that's important because it's an endangered species. The chance of seeing one in person is slim, as it's only a few millimeters long (even though it's the largest whorl snail found in the Netherlands).

And you can read the rest on the sign beneath his beautiful wooden statue, one of the wooden statues in "Boom tot Beeld" by artist Roel van Wijlick for the nature trail in the municipality of Swalmen.
