Does anyone know where to find information on the transportation of newts and salamanders? maybe give me some book references? I have already got info from a book, author is Frank Indiviglio, Newts and Salamanders, and I am wondering if there is any more information out there anyone knows about.
 
If you are transporting by car or train, pack them as shown in the article, and carry them in a cooler with a cold pack. Transportation of any animal by airplane is generally forbidden.
 
You can also consider Cargolution as a viable live animal transportation company. I have worked with them in the past and am very pleased with their services.

    Dear All, I would appreciate some help identifying P. waltl disease and treatment. We received newts from Europe early November and a few maybe 3/70 had what it looked like lesions under the legs- at that time we thought maybe it was the stress of travel- now we think they probably had "red leg syndrome" (see picture). However a few weeks later other newts started to develop skin lesions (picture enclosed). The sender recommended to use sulfamerazine and we have treated them 2x and we are not sure they are all recovering. Does anyone have any experience with P. waltl diseases and could give some input on this? Any input would be greatly appreciated! Thank you.
