It would help if the article in some way could indicate which part of the world the snail invaded Broward county is.
I imagine it's Australia with megapests and English language, right?
It's Florida, in the United States. The article is from a local news station, which is probably why they don't mention their own state. Sorry for the confusion!
@Exaggeration207 @maynarkh confusing Florida for Australia is pretty much presumed with both being sun beaten places where wildlife that would shock the rest of humanity is quaint daily life of their respective people.
Hit Australian comedy Kath & Kim was remade in America and was set in Florida... only got one season in the US
The American version of Kath & Kim taught us how not to do a TV remake
