Description
The axolotl (Ambystoma mexicanum) is native to one single lake near Mexico City. Urbanization and the degradation of their territory have nearly driven the species to extinction, but they are becoming popular pets in captivity. A delightful-looking type of salamander, axolotls are perhaps best known for their remarkable ability to regrow lost limbs or other body parts.
