How a salamander breaths?
Salamanders breathe by gills, lungs, mouth lining, and skin, sometimes in combination, sometimes separately. Members of the water dwelling salamanders lack lungs and breathe through the skin and mouth.Salamanders have skin through which oxygen and carbon dioxide can enter and leave the body. Most adult salamanders also have lungs and use their skin only as a source of extra oxygen.I beleive they breathe through their skin through miniscule holes called "spiracles."by opening there mouth and saying "EAK"
