Yes, Baroque, the banana slug is the mascot for the tree-hugging Northern California university UC Santa Cruz! http://www.slugweb.com/history.html http://www.goslugs.com/ And since at least someone was at least curious (thanks BSB), it is a tradition at the science camp in Northern California (mandatory 6th grade learning experience) in the redwood forrest, for the girls to kiss the banana slugs. I guess it was a good year when I was there, they were everywhere! I kissed 36 of em in one week
