Giant slugs are always voracious and prefer to eat flesh or plants high in water content. They frequently consume livestock or strip bare entire orchards or melon crops. For cattle, pigs, or other sizable meals, they first shred the creatures using their radula—tongue-like appendages covered in teeth— to make them easier to consume. The mucus secreted by a giant slug is powerfully acidic and viscous. Wherever it travels, the creature leaves a trailing brown strip that kills most vegetation. Farmers and ranchers, especially those living near swamps known to contain giant slugs, keep close tabs on these journeys. Many almanacs go into great detail on slug migration and mating seasons. Since each giant slug needs its own wide hunting ground, the creatures typically come into proximity to mate only once a year. Either or both slugs can become impregnated, and any that do typically lay a clutch of around 100 eggs. They usually lay these eggs in a shallow bog or a cool, humid cave.\n\n Giant slugs tend to travel at night, as the creatures dislike sunlight and dry weather. They have been known to seek out locations like barns, the undersides of bridges, or even fortifications like castles for shelter as dawn starts to break. Woe to the unprepared farmer who ambles out at sunrise to milk the cows but instead finds that a giant slug has made the barn its home! Subterranean giant slugs don't have to worry about sunlight, and crawl about on no schedule in particular. Narrow tunnels pose little obstacle for them, as the creatures can easily compress their bodies. These factors make their movements very unpredictable, so they pose quite a menace for underground peoples like [kobolds](/MonsterFamilies.aspx?ID=65) or [xulgaths](/MonsterFamilies.aspx?ID=102).\r\n\r\n<column gap=\"tiny\">\r\n**[Recall Knowledge - Animal](/Rules.aspx?ID=563)**\r\n([Nature](/Skills.aspx?ID=10)): DC 24\r\n\r\n**[Unspecific Lore](/Rules.aspx?ID=563)**: DC 22\r\n\r\n**[Specific Lore](/Rules.aspx?ID=563)**: DC 19\r\n</column>\r\n\r\n</column>\r\n\r\n<column gap=\"medium\">\r\n<image src=\"/images/Monsters/Slug_GiantSlug.png\" />\r\n</column>\r\n\r\n</row>\r\n\r\n<title level=\"2\" right=\"Creature 8\">[Slug](/Monsters.aspx?ID=806)</title>\r\n\r\n<traits>\r\n<trait label=\"N\" url=\"/Rules.aspx?ID=95\" />\r\n<trait label=\"Huge\" />\r\n<trait label=\"Animal\" url=\"/Traits.aspx?ID=9\" />\r\n</traits>\r\n\r\n<column gap=\"tiny\">\r\n\r\n<row gap=\"tiny\">**Source** [Bestiary 2](/Sources.aspx?ID=32) pg. 244 <sup>2.0</sup></row>\n\n**Perception** +14; no hearing, [scent (imprecise) 60 feet](/MonsterAbilities.aspx?ID=33)\r\n\r\n**Languages**\n\n**Skills**\r\n[Athletics](/Skills.aspx?ID=3) +19\r\n\r\n<row gap=\"medium\">\r\n**Str** +7\r\n\r\n**Dex** -1\r\n\r\n**Con** +7\r\n\r\n**Int** -5\r\n\r\n**Wis** +2\r\n\r\n**Cha** -4\r\n</row>\n\n</column>\r\n\r\n---\r\n\r\n<column gap=\"tiny\">\r\n\r\n<row gap=\"medium\">\r\n**AC** 25 \r\n\r\n**Fort** +21 \r\n\r\n**Ref** +11 \r\n\r\n**Will** +14 \n\n</row>\r\n\r\n**HP** 165\n\n**Resistances**\r\nacid 10\r\n\r\n**Weaknesses**\r\nsalt 5\n\n</column>\r\n\r\n---\r\n\r\n<column gap=\"tiny\">\r\n\r\n**Speed** 20 feet, climb 15 feet\r\n\r\n**Melee**\r\n<actions string=\"Single Action\" />\r\nradula +21 ([reach 15 feet](/Traits.aspx?ID=192)),\r\n**Damage** 2d10+10 slashing plus mucus\r\n\r\n**Melee**\r\n<actions string=\"Single Action\" />\r\nfoot +21 ([reach 10 feet](/Traits.aspx?ID=192)),\r\n**Damage** 2d8+10 bludgeoning plus mucus\r\n\r\n**Ranged**\r\n<actions string=\"Single Action\" />\r\ndisgorged mucus +17 ([Brutal](/Traits.aspx?ID=249), [range increment 50 feet](/Traits.aspx?ID=248), [Splash](/Traits.aspx?ID=150)),\r\n**Damage** 3d6 acid damage plus mucus and 1d6 acid splash damage\n\n**Malleable**   The giant slug can fit through tight spaces as if it were a Large creature.
