Miami Beach has been invaded by enormous pink snails

Beginning November 18,  and through January 3rd , 45 pink snails are the newest decoration to Miami Beach. The snails are part of a project led by Cracking Art Group, and italian Galleria Ca' de Oro. The project is called REgeneration and it strives to create awareness of the positive  impact recycling has on the environment. They leave their trace around the world by placing large colored animals in the most unexpected places. In this occasion the snail was chosen as a symbol of nature, and made out of recycled plastic. This year it was Miami's turn to join Paris, Milan, and Prague, among many in their quest for a cleaner environment.
