Tiger Salamanders
Eastern Tiger Salamander are amphibians. Normal size for these amphibians is around 7-8 inches. Eastern Tiger Salamanders could grow up to 13-14 inches. These amphibians will spend most of their lives underground. They will go into water occasionally, but mostly to mate. A female salamander could lay one or many eggs at the same time. When the babies are born, the babies stay in water till late Summer. These babies then grow to be about 4-5 inches and develop air breathing skills. They then leave the water and try to find a place to live underground. Eastern Tiger Salamanders could be found in most of Easter and Central region of United States, and at Pipe Spring National Monument! |
