PHYSICAL CHARACTERISTICS
The salamander is a special type of animal with unmatchable traits and characteristics that will blow your mind! A salamander is a lizard-like creature that has 5 toes on its front feet and 4 toes on its back feet. Its color ranges in red, brown, white[clear], and orange. A salamander length ranges from 2.7 inches to 1.8 meters. That's coming from the CHINESE GIANT SALAMANDER! Salamanders are aquatic as teens, but they're terrestrial as adults. Salamanders need to keep their skin moist, because if not, they could possibly die. Their skin has glands that releases mucus onto the skin to keep it moist. The skin is like a transparent hole to water, allowing water to pass through it. Those are the physical characteristics of a salamander.
ECOSYSTEM & HABITAT
Salamanders live in multiple habitats, including pond and lakes, swamps, and caves, and rivers and forests. Some biotic things in a salamander's habitat might be.....
