A small snail lives in the gaps of a traditional Maltese rubble wall, showing how these walls create safe habitats for wildlife. Unlike concrete walls, which are smooth and lifeless, rubble walls provide shelter, moisture, and protection for tiny organisms. This image highlights the importance of preserving rubble walls in Malta, as they support biodiversity and keep nature alive even in built environments.
