For the past month or so I have been making weekly youtube episodes of various species of salamanders native to east tennessee, as I make more episodes there is less to make episodes of, My goal is to make an episode on hellbenders and mudpuppies by the 10th episode. I make these to educate people in this area about the salamander diversity around them and to encourage people in other areas to go out and find their native species and be aware of them. I want to make people want to be more careful and protect habitats after they see what lives in them in my videos. Episode 5 is dedicated to my favorite species, Pseudotriton ruber in the wild. Many more episodes to come!

These vids are really good. They make me wonder what types are around here. I do a lot of nature walking and similar and see sals, frogs, and turtles all the time, sals being the least of the lot I see. I am in Rutherford County, in the exact center. In which TN county do you reside?

    Had a question that I just want to be sure of. My marbled newt is a little over a year old and has started to develop and I noticed that he is starting to swell a little below his abdomen. I guess I’d like to know if they are his testes or if I need to be concerned.

    Hello!!! I'm new to this website and idk how to ask a proper question on the designated spot yet, so I'll ask here, I'm a first time Axolotl owner, and my dad used to run an aquarium store, anyways... Orca, my Axolotl, seems to loose parts of her toes on one limb from time to time, I can't seem to find the problem. Tempature is well, she doesn't seem to have any infections or anything, though. And I'm not sure if I'll be able to find a vet in Brazil for amphibians that are in a reasonable distance to drive without stressing Orca out too much

    Hello, I’m hoping for some advice please. Our Axolotl is about 7 months old. Till now no problem. Eating, growing and happy. He’s simply stopped eating. Everything looks fine, his gills look healthy and no apparent signs of sickness. He just swims past the pellets and bloodworm like he can’t smell it. I don’t think it’s a blockage either. Any ideas and suggestions for treatment would be much appreciated. Thank you!
