A salamander has a skin like a frog; It absorbs the oxygen around them.

class amphibia is the class for amphibians

Newt eggs are laid in land.

Almost all salamanders belong tot the Plethonidae-family: the so-called lungless salamanders. They don't have lungs but breathe completely throught their throats and their skin. You could say this is the major adaption of the salamanders. A disadvantage is that as soon as the salamander enters a dry area, it inmediately starts to dehydrate. Most salamanders can only survive in permanent moit environments.

They may also Create a Larvae around their bodies to protect themselves from a some-what attack.

Yes, there are newts that live in the rainforest. One example of where these newts live is along the Congo in the Ituri rainforest in Central Africa.

adult red back salamanders appear able to survive for long periods of time; with a few surviving as long as 25 years

There is no real answer to your question. There are over 500 different types of salamanders that come in a wide variety of colors, including some that are more than one single color. Also they can range in size from less than an inch long to almost 6 feet long.

There are many websites devoted to the care and housing of captive salamaders, so I am going to assume that by "raise" you mean breeding. Breeding of captive salamanders is not an easy thing. While difficult and somewhat expensive, it can be acheived by very detailed and minute changes in the temperature, lighting, humidity after they have been forced into a hibernation period.

Salamanders are very quick and interesting amphibians. They can run at a top speed of 42 kilometers per hour, or 30 miles per hour.

Yes, there are many species of grasshoppers that live in the desert. In the southwest United States one of the most spectacular grasshoppers is the horse lubber.

shallow creeks , NOT ponds. i have a creek right by my apartments it best to go after it rained. you usually find them in shallow, muddy, cold water creeks. they need a air pump because i caught mine 2 days ago and they died because i didn't put the air pump in there WARNING: they get big enough to bite your hand off and swallow it in one gulp, and they are very territorial mud puppies live at the bottom of lakes, ponds, rivers, and streams, and never leave the water. They hide themselves in vegetation and under rocks and logs, emerging at night to feed on whatever prey they can catch, including crayfish, worms, and snails.

Mudpuppies are easily distinguishable by their bushy, red external gills, which they grow as larva and never lose. They have flat heads, wide tails, stubby legs, and feet with four distinct toes. Their bodies are gray or brownish-gray with blue-black spots.

Females lay large clutches of eggs and guard them until they hatch, a unique trait among salamanders.

Mudpuppies are common throughout their range and have no special conservation status. However, habitat loss and pollution is putting pressure on some local populations.

Salamanders communicate with each other by visual ways. They also secrete a chemical that other salamanders can smell as a way to communicate.

depends what species you're talking about

Leopard geckos are compatible with a female housed with another female. Generally, they will mind one anothers company and not bother one another. In some cases, females will show dominance and could nip or bite a tank mate. So be sure to monitor their terrarium to ensure no bullying is taking place. A male cannot be housed with another male because once they reach maturity, males will show aggressive tendencies to prove who is dominant. This can ultimately lead to infection or even death. Males do great with multiple females if your expecting to breed.

short- tailed shrews, crocodiles, fish, bullfrogs, bass, ducks, turtles, snakes, wading birds and other salamanders.

The Tiger Salamander normally lives in a burrow two feet deep near a source of water. They range from southern Canada, all over the U.S from coast to coast and into eastern Mexico. See the related link for more information and a range map.

An aquarium with about 4 in. of water, gravel, rocks, and a dry spot in the tank were your salamander can climb to.

Of course it depends on the particular salamander. From Wikipedia: "They range in size from the minute salamanders, with a total length of 2.7 centimetres (1.1 in), including the tail, to the Chinese giant salamander which reaches 1.8 metres (5.9 ft) and weighs up to 65 kg (140 lb). Most, however, are between 10 centimetres (3.9 in) and 20 centimetres (7.9 in) in length."

So, in grams, that's anywhere from less than 1 gram to 65,000 grams.

I imagine so.

I have an axolotyl and all I feed him are inch long sections of garden worm, not only are they free but they contain all the things he needs in the correct proportions. As a Salamander is the same sort of thing I think it will be fine.
