Thanks.

It is Achatina fulica, a land snail.  It is originally from eastern Africa, but has been accidentally introduced into many other tropical and semi-tropical locations around the world, including Japan, Southeast Asia, Australia, the Pacific Islands, Caribbean islands, etc.
Thanks Paul. Now I know that it´s an invasive specie in the south of my country.
