Great find!https://dghaskell.com/wp-content/uploads/2012/09/marbled-salamander.jpgmarbled salamanderI found this Marbled Salamander during another class. It was hiding under a log in a dried up vernal pool. In a normal year, the salamander would wait for several more months before the pool filled up. This week's phenomenal rains mean that the pools are now overbrimming. We'll see whether or not the water stays. If so, this will be the earliest filling of these ephemeral wetlands that I know of in recent years. https://dghaskell.com/wp-content/uploads/2012/09/slimy2.jpgslimyThis Slimy salamander was under a rock in the same creek. This species is usually found away from water, under logs or rocks, so this individual may have just been passing through. Slimy salamanders lay their eggs in moist places on land and their young never dip their toes in water. Young Seal Salamanders, on the other hand, are aquatic.https://dghaskell.com/wp-content/uploads/2012/09/slimy1.jpgslimyhttps://dghaskell.com/wp-content/uploads/2012/09/slimy.jpgslimyhttps://dghaskell.com/wp-content/uploads/2012/09/sealtoes.jpgsealtoesUnlike its close relatives, the Seal Salamander has tough cornified toe tips, possibly to help it climb vegetation during its terrestrial forays.

It was indeed living in some moss. They have eight little legs and amble along like bears. This one is stranded on its back with its front legs pointing to the left and its hose-like mouth just visible. Don't let the rolly-poly cuteness fool you: these are the toughest animals in the world, able to enter suspended animation and survive the deepest cold imaginable, vacuums, utter dryness for years, and exposure to temperatures above the boiling point of water. https://dghaskell.com/wp-content/uploads/2012/03/rotiferchriswaldrup1.jpgRotiferChrisWaldrupCommercial break: go buy Apple products.
