Have you ever accidently killed a snail while on a walk?
Happened to me a few minutes ago together with a friend.
We went grocery shopping and accidentally stepped on a snail, that's the grossest sound and feeling of all time and we both felt very bad. Has this ever happened to you?

Think so, felt a bit sad about it as well.

Yes but accidents happen. At night when I hear a crunch, I just hope it was a leaf.
To be honest, I don't really feel bad if it's around my garden since they are pests and I use snail repellant to protect my crops anyway. But outside the garden, I'd try to avoid them.

I don't think so. The snails that I've encountered are usually on a wall or tree and are almost never in a place where I would accidentally step on them.

I take a lot of walks. So statistically, that is very likely.

Yeah... Not that long ago. Poor snail.

Plenty, once I had to cut tall grass and there were tens, maybe hundreds and I didn't realize until I looked at the ground. I though there were a lot of pebbles in the tall grass.
So many lives were lost that day. Rest in peace.

On that note, if you're a vegan it's probably best not to contemplate how many rabbits, toads, snakes, spiders, moles, etc., die every time crops are harvested.
I call 'Stepping on a snail' horror.

Every human being kills to survive, there are no exceptions.

From insects to animals to plants to microbial life, it is not possible to suggest otherwise.

You snuff out life so that yours may continue - end of story.

Every person who has ever taken a walk has killed many small creatures that were trodden under foot. If you've ever ridden in a vehicle, slept under a roof, washed yourself, scratched an itch, taken a breath, etc.

It isn't a question of guilt or innocence, it's a question of degree and intent.

Strictly going with the laws of probability, probably - but I don't recall ever doing so.
