Newts in the news

Yep, it's good to see that sometimes people are really worried about newts and try to do everything for protect them, even if it's only few specimens. That really makes me happy !
 
On the tv we only see lovely panda bears and whales that need to be rescued. People only want to help cuddly animals I guess...

BTW, bit off topic, anyone seen a newt/amphibian special on discovery channel or animal planet once? I haven't, but I presume there are some.
 
No, I have not. And many of my friends don't even know what newts are.
 
There was a program on Animal Planet once about the giant amphibians of the world, i can't remember the name of it now but if its on again i'll let you know, it had giant toads, frogs and salamanders including those enormous one that are like a meter long, they catch one and measure it etc, but it's really vicious

it was fantastic...
 
The same for me, my friends don't know what is a newt. And on french TV, I NEVER saw any program about newts and salamanders. And for know about new species or any actualities about newts you really have to make your researches by your own. Everything is always about tigers, panda, elephants, or whatever !

    Not necessarily but if you’re wanting to continue to grow your breeding capacity then yes. Breeding axolotls isn’t a cheap hobby nor is it a get rich quick scheme. It costs a lot of money and time and deditcation

    Would Chinese fire belly newts be more or less inclined towards an aquatic eft set up versus Japanese . I'm raising them and have abandoned the terrarium at about 5 months old and switched to the aquatic setups you describe. I'm wondering if I could do this as soon as they morph?
