I rescued this Tiger Salamander. He was being sold in the larva stage as fish bait at a local store. I bought 10 of the "Water Dogs". Only 2 survived and this was one of them.

Fish bait? For what kind of fishing?

People use them for bass fishing.

Is his skin "poisonous," like the skin of our local salamanders here (in California)? We're not supposed to handle them if we have open cuts.

Poor babies, I have salamanders in our garden. We have a pond, I see the young salamanders slowly moving around in early Spring.

Good for you and what a good thing you did. What is it like to have that as a pet?
