Hi again,
I am looking to find some volunteers who would like to spend a day catching neotenic tiger salamanders with me. The location is south of Canyon TX It would have to be within the next week (by the 21st). We have a location but they are spead out and the more people the faster this process will happen. These are for research and will be released afterwards. we may be able to find a pair of boots /waders to fit you depending on what is in stock here at the refuge. You can bring kids or friends but dogs aren't allowed at the refuge.


please write me at paris.reilley@okstate.edu if you wish to help out.
 
I'm tempted. Two questions though- what is the mosquito count like right now and can we possibly take 1 or perhaps 2 home with us ;) ?
 
I wish you weren't so far away. Have you looked at the salamander trap thread? If it wasn't a full days drive to get there I'd do it.
 
When are you planning on doing this? I'm only about 1:45 from Canyon.

    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.
