Salamander: Water
built 647 days ago
The tiger salamander has decreased in population in the past 10 years. They are now endangered because of destruction of their habitats from pesticide use, development, soil compaction, and degradation of water quality. Also, birds and predatory fish have been known to prey on salamander eggs and larvae.

The Texas blind salamander depends on a constant supply of clean, cool water from the Edwards Aquifer. Pollution and overuse of water caused by the growth of cities threaten its survival. You can help by conserving water and preventing water pollution.
