Thread:Comments:New studies may bring slug-made glues closer to use in medicine/Usage in nature/reply (5)

One of the sources did paint a nice word picture of that. Another source (well, two but I think one was getting it from the other) painted a nice word picture of a predator getting its jaw glued shut. When the sources are inconsistent like that, none of it can be treated as "common knowledge"; it's all hearsay. My guess would be that both happen, but of course we don't get to guess and also don't need to.
