Jenny,

Salamanders come in all shapes and sizes.

Like a dog they are a dog but loads of breeds of it like a poodle, staff etc.

Pin-pin pointed out in chat to everyone that this salamander is making an obscene gesture with his toes.

[isaiah]

This salamander can also rip the flesh from your hand if given the chance, hence the smile.

 

[kaysie]

But Isaiah, he's so CUTE! surely something so cute cant be so vicious?

(Jeff will get the inside joke on this one)

CC needs photos of amphiumas, any species. Anyone got any? (And thanks for this one, Tim!)
