Slimy Salamanders

I found two slimy salamanders under a board the other day while I was running. They are actually called Slimy Salamanders because they "exude a slimy substance that is difficult to remove from the hands". They can get as long as 8 inches. I let them go in our front yard under our pine straw bed.

Gotta love random wildlife!

This thing just wandered into our yard yesterday. Crazy!


Actually our long time neighbor Royal has 5 of these. The biggest is seen here, his name is Scampy. He brought him by yesterday and the kids (and I) just loved it. The HOA will love him too, cause he cleared our front yard of weeds in about 20 minutes. Thanks Scampy!!!
