As pretty as this three minute video is, it was shot in the name of science, and not art.

Researchers from the Ecology department at the University of Exeter tracked the activity of 450 garden snails using LED lights, UV paints, and time-lapse photography in a bid to discover the ways in which lungworm infections are spread from snails to dogs.

That’s all well and good, but the majority of you should be entirely concerned with the incredible footage of hundreds of glowing snails escaping through a garden.
