Life span: 12- 15 years

Males release spermatophore into the water and the female may take them up, eventually laying around 200-600 eggs on plants. The eggs will hatch in two weeks but the tadpole-like young will remain attached to the plants for a further two weeks. At two weeks of age they begin to swim in search of food. Young axolotls also eat each other and mortality rates are very high, around 97%.
