The Burgundy snail, Helix pomatia L., is an edible species from Yugoslav fauna, seriously endangered primarily because of uncontrolled gathering, as well as change, destruction or pollution of habitats. In this analysis of possibilities of Helix pomatia culture, the species biology is given and the danger of extinction is pointed out. Snail farming together with increased legal control is the best way for the protection of this species. The outdoor method of Helix pomatia culture is presented including the choice of appropriate ground type, fences, pen organization, optimal combination of plants for feed and shelter, population density as well as the yield expected.
