Default New salamander. Need info
Saturday my dad was helping do some landscaping. He brought me front end loader full of dirt. While unloading it we found this girl (I think its a girl). I can't believe it survived. Other than an injured toe she seems fine. I wanted to confirm it was a Tiger and any more specifics you might know.

That's definitely a tiger. if you narrow down your location a bit, someone will probably be able to identify the sub-species.
