Snail Shelter

thingiverse

The basic idea that my project aims at; Helping children look around with an inclusive worldview. It aims to support sensitivity to vital freedoms by raising awareness of our relationship with our environment at an early age, when stereotypes are formed in our minds. A snail shelter designed to help snails have a safe hibernation. As a result of the decrease in green areas in mostly urbanized areas, the living spaces of snails, like many creatures, are narrowing. Snails, which are hibernating creatures, find sheltered places in the autumn months, cover themselves with mucus mixed with calcium and fix them to the surface and slow their metabolism to a standstill. In this way, they manage to survive the winter months, but in this process; There are millions of snails in the cities that cannot find a suitable place and lose their lives every winter. Our awareness of life sometimes starts with thinking about the smallest bits, especially if you're a child.
