The Habanero Slug The habenero slug produces a hot 'n spicy slime coating sufficient to deter most predators. Unfortunately, in recent years, the habenero slug has become highly prized as a spice, and are kept in small terrariums and 'milked' regularly. Since the slugs require highly specific mating conditions, (proper phase of the moon, great heat, and a suitable chili bog) they are nearly impossible to breed in captivity and are growing increasingly rare in the wild.
