Not quite as fierce as the Bears, Lions, or Wolverines, what is the unusual mascot of the University of California Santa Cruz sports teams?

The Banana Slug, a bright yellow, slimy, shell-less mollusk commonly found on the redwood forest floor, was the unofficial mascot for UC Santa Cruz's co-ed teams since the university's early years.
