Just found two four toed salamanders, drying out under a tree ring in by backyard. I am very familiar with red-backs, and they are certainly not them. We seem to be going through a bit of a drought, undoubtedly a heat wave, so I've been doing a fair few rescues lately, and seeing a number I was too late to save. One's lost its tail recently, but its growing back.

I was very excited to find these two, most accounts I read say they tend to be uncommon. So thus far thats three of the five ns caudates I've come across, now I just need a red eft, and a blue-spotted.

I'll let these guys go when we finally get some more reasonable weather, or the swamps behind my house get swampy again, whatever comes first. Anyone have advice on taking care of them in the meantime?
