Introducing our brand-new Lord Howe Island Snail Christmas ornament!

Did you know Lord Howe Island successfully eradicated rats in 2019? Or that it’s known for some of the rarest and most unique snails in the world? Currently undergoing an ecological renaissance after the elimination of rodents, the fate of the island’s snails finally holds hope. Living among lush cloud cover at the top of the tallest peaks in the rainforest’s leaf litter, the Whitelegge’s land snail shows us the kind of positive impact we can make with enough resources and effort. Hang this beacon of hope on your Christmas tree to represent Australia’s tiny wonders or gift to the nature lover in your life.
