Watch: Slug slides down it's own mucus

Check out this cool video of a slug using its slime to dangle in the air!

The new move was discovered by an ecologist at the University of Newcastle in Australia when he was studying frogs.

This type of movement hasn't been seen in slugs before.

In the video, we can see the slug using its mucus to lower itself to the ground - similar to how spiders do.
