Caudata.org

The longest running Amphibian Community on the Internet.

Notices

Willkommen, Bienvenue, Welcome to Caudata.org, the Newt & Salamander Information Portal.

We are the longest running community for amphibian enthusiasts on the Internet. Our primary goal is the sharing of information on the maintenance and breeding of newts and salamanders in captivity. We are also actively involved in fieldwork and funding conservation of endangered species.

Right now you are viewing our community as a guest. This gives you limited access to our forum and resources. For example, you can only view the first message in any conversation in our "Advanced Topics" section, and guests can view but not respond to "for sale" or "want" adverts. Join our free community and get full access, post questions, your own photo gallery, PM other members, your own fully customizable Blog and many special features. Registration is fast, simple and totally free so please, join today! Problem? Please contact us.

For care info, Caudata Culture is the site for you. Axolotls? The Axolotl Site is the best on the net.
