These rough-skinned newts look like a baby Godzilla

When threatened, newts arch the head towards the tail (“unken reflex”). This posture reveals the bright orange coloration of the underside that warns predators of its toxicity. With the exception of the common garter snake (Thamnophis sirtalis), few vertebrate predators can survive ingesting a rough-skinned newt. The highly toxic nature of this species allows them to be one of the few terrestrial salamanders active and conspicuous during the day. The toxin (tetrodotoxin) is produced within the skin, not secreted. Newts can be handled safely but care should be taken with small children prone to putting things in their mouths. After handling any amphibian, one should avoid touching the mucus membranes of the eyes, nose and mouth until hands have been washed.
