Trails & Tales of Living Seashells is a collage of video clips that includes mollusks and other sea creatures. Watch as curious trails in the sand are followed in order to find the mollusk or other animal that made them.

You will see exceptional footage of scallops that shows detailed anatomy not seen in Mollusks in Action.

The byssus of an Atlantic pearl oyster is explored. Learn how oysters and mussels attach themselves to objects using hair-like filaments and an amazing adhesive.

Watch an experiment to test the escape response of a small snail when it encounters a predator.

Learn about sand dollars, sea stars, barnacles, brittle stars and spiny urchins. Live footage will give you a better understanding of these interesting animals.

In 2009, Trails & Tales of Living Seashells became the second Secret Lives of Seashells video production to be shown at Sanibel Island’s Bailey-Matthews Shell Museum. Like Mollusks in Action, it has been given rave reviews.

The DVD is divided into chapters so it can be viewed in its entirety or in segments.
