Before...

What is your best guess as to this critter's identity?

Some clues:

• Just over an inch long
• found in the soil while planting flowers in Northern Illinois
• 3 pairs of legs
• one very cool "foot" on last segment that it uses to propel itself
• eats slugs and snails (so it went back into the garden)

After photo will be posted in a month or so. Stay tuned.
