Dead salamander? Bloated from water rot.

That would make a lot of sense thank you!!

Looks like a fish and a lizard had a baby, that unfortunately drowned and then bloated up. The tail is main indicator and it’s got a lizard like head and smooth skin. I can’t be certain of course but my money is on a Salamander if they are in your area.

Looks like a dead Ringed Salamander that’s been bloated. Not sure if the specific species is correct, but it’s without a doubt a salamander

My fault I didn’t see this said ohio, probably marbled not ringed. Once again, not for certain
