Yellow-Spotted Salamander (Everything You Need To Know & How Many will we Find?)
Despite its abundance in North American forests, the spotted salamander is rarely observed. They feed on worms and insects at night while hiding underground or deep within leaf litter, typically without entering the open. When the ice on the vernal ponds nearby has barely melted, they emerge during the breeding season, which runs from March to May each year.
The lizards pass on their cover to advance as a group to the water where they breed. They begin a routine trek across the open ground on a rainy night, as if every salamander for miles is responding to the same call. They become prey-prone as a result of the trip.
However, salamanders like this one will react to the call of nature.
The tadpoles that hatch from the eggs are laid in the vernal pools. An alga that grows inside the eggs of spotted salamanders shares a symbiotic relationship with them. As the eggs develop, this provides them with oxygen and energy. Because some eggs have a membrane that prevents oxygen from passing through the water around them, this is necessary.
In the wild, Salamanders can live up to 32 years. Throughout that entire time, they must remain shaded by the sun.
To survive, their skin must remain moist.
