Cool!

[paris]

here's a cool spotted salamander pic i found on the net.

the animals didnt look well, skin wise, and if you look at the web page you will see why -they were essentially stewing in their own toxic foam in a pit fall trap

the original can be found at http://www.indiana.edu/~nimsmsf/MSF/AMPHIB05/DSCN0708.jpg


the main web page is www.indiana.edu/~nimsmsf/MSF/labnews.htm

oh wow, that sal sure is amazing, the pit fall was kind of discusting to me, 260 salamanders in it thats a sick amount of sals

Sorry, Paris, we can't re-post photos from elsewhere, even with the link to the original site. I took out the photo, but the link still goes to it - it's a 2-tailed salamander.

Wow, two tailed Salamander. I am in love. I hope to see a two tailed axolotl one day... That sure was a lot of salamanders in one bucket..."deformaties" such as extra tails are very fascinating to me.

I prefer to have animals/amphibians etc with deformities because no one else wants them and it makes me sad - so i get them

Aw, Laura McColl you have a big heart. I don't undertand why anyone would not want to love their little deformed salamander,turtle, etc. its a unique pet.
