Question:
Dear Jim, My daughter found a blue spotted salamander and wants to keep it. We've created an enviroment of mud, moss, sticks, rocks, water & grass. We've tried to feed it baby crickets & baby worms. I have never seen a salamander like this one before. We live in Orillia, Ontario. I saw on the internet that they may be found in nova scotia. I am worried that this little thing could die. "Sally" the salamander is about 3 inches long. My daughter absolutly loves her more than anything and we are trying to persuade her to let her go so she has a better chance of survival & can breed. I'm also thinking that as soon as she loses interest in it we will let her go. Sally's very lethargic and still - doesn't look that happy - although I doubt I'd recognize a happy salamander anyways. Any info on weither these salamanders can survive in captivity, and how would be great. thanks Lori |
