Injured Salamander

Reddit Animals

Well, there was a spotted salamander in there and I accidentally hit his tail. I was getting my sprinklers set up, and when I opened up the pump box in the ground I used a rock to clear some debris. He had some blood come out, but it almost immediately stopped bleeding, although the outside blood remained. What is their capacity to heal?

Battle with a salamander ?

Reddit Animals

Turns out it’s a salamander. So I’ve been having what I thought was a battle with a prairie dog with a hole under my front walkway. I’d put rocks to block the hole. The next day they would be gone. For weeks this has been happening. Well I got home after work. I thought they stayed closer to water. Anyone know why ?

Reddit Animals

For example, whoever named the blue spotted salamander did a yeoman's job, as this animal is (1) a salamander, and (2) blue with black spots. The name "Mamba Snake" doesn't tell us much about how it looks, but it's unique, memorable and, importantly, a snake.
