Best Answer

Axolotl's are a kind of salamander that have evolved into a paedomorphic state.

More Mud puppies and many cave salamanders also exhibit paedomorphosis. The most obvious example is that these salamaders retain external gills, a juvenile trait, into adulthood and throughout their lives. They often also retain other juvenile traits, such as webbing on the tail and feet.
