Salamanders and Newts

All salamanders are carnivorous: larger ones consume earthworms and adults and larvae of many insects; smaller species eat small insects, insect larvae and various small invertebrates. Larvae eat tadpoles, smaller salamander larvae and aquatic invertebrates

They once brathed with gills but have adapted and can be underwater for long time while holding its breathe. So they have lungs

Acquire wealth. A man or woman with extensive assets is naturally attractive.

Many amphibians hibernate because they are unable to regulate their body temperature like mammals and birds. They allow their body temperature to drop to extremely low levels and their bodily functions slow way down. In this way they don't need to run around searching for food because they don't need to burn energy to keep warm or maintain other bodily functions. When the weather warms up again, their body returns to normal and they function at optimal body temperatures again.

Keep in mind this is only the case for some amphibians. In warmer or tropical climates it may not be necessary because it may never get cold enough to warrant hibernation.

Yes blue spotted salamanders are poisonous!!

Yes, if it will allow you to. However, the newt's skin is sensitive to rough objects, dry skin, and oil on your hands, so you should always wash your hands before and after handling.

They can eat them but will get sick and die soon afterwards. It is a tragedy since spotted salamanders are naturally attracted to light and bugs, that makes lightning bugs very deadly for spotted salamandars

Some are skunks, raccoons, turtles, chipmunks, squirrels, opossums, and snakes.

The vast majority of salamanders species do not have claws. The only salamanders that have claws are the long-tailed clawed salamander and the Japanese clawed salamander.

there usually bright colors like red or orange

yes

CHEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEESSSSSSSSSSSSEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE is yummy!@#!@!#

When on land smooth newts tend to feed on insects, worms and slugs. In water they feed on Shrimps, water lice, insect larvae, water snails and frog tadpoles.

Newt larvae feed on aquatic invertebrates and crustaceans.

Newts will also eat algae,usually found at the bottom of the pond,river,lake and stream etc. They are carnivores.

Salamanders come in many shapes, sizes, colors, and designs. They live in many different areas, and they eat many things. Their diet consists of millipedes, centipedes, cricket, slugs, worms and spiders.

Not if you are smart and don't put them together. Amphibians poison the water for fish.

The Chinese Giant Salamander is endangered becuase, we as Takers want everything to be like we want, and this is seen in Daniel Quinn's Ishmael. We hunt them for food, flesh and pets, therefor ruining there population.

I saw one in a sanitary sewer this weekend in Northern Michigan.

Newts will eat about anything that salamanders will eat. Try earthworms, small crickets, and meal worms. Some aquatic newts may acclimate to shrimp pellets. Shredded frozen shrimp and fish might make a good staple for them. I suspect that live blood worms would be good for the smaller ones. Your local pet store may have a frozen food that they can recommend. Though a newt may eat frozen or dried food, occasional servings of live food are essential.

'Salamanders' are a group of amphibians belonging to the Order Caudata. There are many different families in this order, all of which are considered Salamanders.

There are lots of terrestrial salamanders that would qualify as cousins to the Axolotl.

There are different types of spotted salamanders. Depending on the color there are many types. My personal favorite is the red spotted newt. Newts and salamanders are pretty much the same thing but newts live more in water. Salamanders also can live in the water but you will mostly find newts there. Different kinds of spotted newts/salamanders are: Black and yellow spotted, Blue spotted, and Red spotted salamanders/newts.

Salamanders, unlike lizards, require water and moisture for all aspects of their life cycle. If the amount of rain has left pools of water that will remain through the Summer, many will not have to seek the long trek to ponds, streams and lakes outside of their wooded areas. It is all a matter of procreation and food, as with all amphibians.

salamanders have a heart with one ventricle and two atria

Some may be infertile - they'd never hatch anyway. Since the eggs are laid in water, many of them will be eaten by predators.
