A snail got itself stuck in the spout of the watering can. Its natural
instinct was to head for the light 'at the end of the spout', but of
course the spout got narrower and it got stuck so we had to poke it out.

'Our' reaction would be to reverse, but 'can' snails reverse? Anybody
see

Don't know. I get the same thing but usually manage to gently release it
without breaking the shell

You have to crack the shells to eat them, surely?

No, when you have cooked them you can just peel them out!
