Need help identifying snail! Found many of these all over a Lowes hardware store garden section in North Carolina. The units on the ruler are centimeters. Beautiful shells, and they look like some kind of exotic tree snail. Any more information would be very helpful. Thanks!

Its a amber snail. Did you find it in a marsh?
