This is the colourful candy-striped land snail (Liguus virgineus),
and it’s only found on Haiti, Dominican Republic and Cuba. For years
its colourful shell made a popular souvenir for travellers visiting
these Caribbean islands, but now a law forbids people from harvesting
the shells and selling them.
Very colorful...I wonder if there are any poachers of such a snail?
